Point Processes and Renewal Theory: A Brief Survey

  • Conference paper
Electronic Systems Effectiveness and Life Cycle Costing

Part of the book series: NATO ASI Series ((NATO ASI F,volume 3))

Summary

A brief survey is given of recent and not-so-recent work on point processes and renewal theory. The emphasis is on the ‘applied mathematics’ of the subject and to a lesser extent on the statistical analysis of empirical data.
