OverviewThis book aims to position itself between the level of elementary probability texts and advanced works on stochastic processes. The pre-requisites to consult this book are a course on elementary probability theory and statistics, and a course on advanced calculus. In this book numberous examples have been given, based on theories discussed and a large number of problems along with their answers have also been provided. This revised edition further updates the materials and references and some new chapters have been introduced. The text has been designed particularly for advanced undergraduate, postgraduate and research level courses in applied maths, statistics, operations research, computer science, different branches of engineering, telecommunications, business and management, economics and life sciences.

(TAV) Similarly a review of the second edition (1994) in the Journal of the Operational Research Society, U.K. (1996) commended it As before, it rightly deserves to be 'nominated' as the first choiceA .
