FMS180/MASC03: Markov Processes

In Swedish

Current information spring semester 2010

Department:
Mathematical Statistics, Centre for Mathematical Sciences

Credits:
FMS180: 6hp (ECTS) credits
MASC03: 7.5hp (ECTS) credits

Requirements:
FMS180: A basic course in Mathematical statistics in one of the civil engineering programs.
MASC03: 45hp (ECTS) credits in Mathematics and a course corresponding to MASA01 Mathematical Statistics, General Course.

Time period:
Second half of the spring semester.

Literature:
Rydén och Lindgren: Markovprocesser, KFS. Additional handouts.

For those who prefer a text written in English we recommend either D. Stirzaker: Stochastic Processes and Models (Oxford University Press) or S.M. Ross: Introduction to Probability Models (Academic Press). These texts are both a lot more comprehensive than the above lecture notes. For the even more ambitious student, P. Brémaud: Markov Chains. Gibbs Fields, Monte Carlo Simulation and Queues. (Springer-Verlag), is also an excellent text that is written at a mathematical level. They can be ordered at, for example, www.bookshop.co.uk, www.amazon.co.uk or www.springer.de.

Examination:
To get credits for FMS180, you must pass the written examination and do the computer lab work. To get credits for MASC03, you must also pass an oral examination.
