Numerical Methods for Solving Discrete Event Systems (Springer, 2022) This graduate textbook provides an alternative to discrete event simulation.\u00a0 It describes how to formulate discrete event systems, how to convert them into Markov chains, and how to calculate their transient and equilibrium probabilities. The most appropriate methods for finding these probabilities are described in some detail, and templates for efficient algorithms are provided. These algorithms can be executed on any laptop, even in cases where the Markov chain has hundreds of thousands of states. This book features the probabilistic interpretation of Gaussian elimination, a concept that unifies many of the topics covered, such as embedded Markov chains and matrix analytic methods.<\/p>\n The material provided should aid practitioners significantly to solve their problems. This book also provides an interesting approach to teaching courses of stochastic processes.<\/p>\n (Description Source: Springer<\/a>)<\/p>\n Javadi Tavakoli <\/strong>is a professor of Mathematics at UBC Okanagan. He holds a PhD in Categorical Algebra from Dalhousie University, NS, Canada. In 1996 he proudly had the opportunity to meet with Winfried Grassmann at the University of Saskatchewan, Canada, where he started his new research area in Applied Probability and Stochastic Processes. Javad Tavakoli has been a researcher and educator at the University of British Columbia Okanagan, Canada since 2003. He published a number of papers in Queuing Theory, mostly with Winfried Grassmann. Javad Tavakoli also has received several awards for teaching excellence and published a pre-calculus book from the indigenous perspective.<\/p>\n Winfried Grassmann <\/strong>is a professor emeritus at the University of Saskatchewan in the department of Computer Science.<\/p>\n N\/A (Upcoming)<\/p>\n From the Publisher \u2013 Springer<\/a> Hardcover ISBN: 9783031100819<\/p>\n The\u00a0University of British Columbia Okanagan Classroom Artwork Project<\/em>\u00a0aims to display academically inspiring artwork in classrooms and other teaching areas of the university.<\/p>\n Artwork displayed as part of this project \u2013 including the covers of books and journals containing work written or edited by UBCO scholars and researchers \u2013 is intended to help enliven university teaching spaces, educate classroom users about the connections between research and teaching, and introduce members of the broader public to some of the research and scholarship carried out at UBCO.<\/p>\n
