Semi-Markov Models

Featuring previously unpublished results, Semi-Markov Models: Control of Restorable Systems with Latent Failures describes valuable methodology which can be used by readers to build mathematical models of a wide class of systems for various applications. In particular, this information can be applied to build models of reliability, queuing systems, and technical control.Beginning with a brief introduction to the area, the book covers semi-Markov models for different control strategies in one-com
