Markovian arrival processes

characteristics of queuing theory which are firstly isthe arrival or inputs to the system such as the population of size, behaviour and pattern or statistical distribution, the second of the characteristics is queue discipline, or the waiting line itself include whether it is limited or unlimited in length and others and lastly, the service facility which include its design and the statistical distribution of service times. The first major characteristic of arrival process which mean the size of the population

Abstract. Data mining is concerned with analysing large volumes of (often unstructured) data to automatically discover interesting regularities or relationships which in turn lead to better understanding of the underlying processes. The field of temporal data mining is concerned with such analysis in the case of ordered data streams with temporal interdependencies. Over the last decade many interesting techniques of temporal data mining were proposed and shown to be useful in many applications. Since

Preface This is a book about Monte Carlo methods from the perspective of financial engineering. Monte Carlo simulation has become an essential tool in the pricing of derivative securities and in risk management; these applications have, in turn, stimulated research into new Monte Carlo techniques and renewed interest in some old techniques. This is also a book about financial engineering from the perspective of Monte Carlo methods. One of the best ways to develop an understanding of a model of,
