    Models Of Computation

Covers both the Probabalistic models and Statistical methods used by reliability engineers. It contains explanations of how the mathematical models and results apply to engineering design and the analysis of lifetime data sets. Most applications are drawn from mechanical, civil or electrical engineering systems.
