Dieses Buch vermittelt anschaulich und leicht verständlich die Grundlagen der Wirtschaftsstatistik (Mathematische Voraussetzungen, Beschreibende und Schließende Statistik, Datenanalyse), die für empirische Aufgabenstellungen, Datenaufbereitung, Ergebnisinterpretation und den Einsatz von...

This textbook gives a comprehensive introduction to stochastic processes and calculus in the fields of finance and economics, more specifically mathematical finance and time series econometrics. Over the past decades stochastic calculus and processes have gained great importance, because they...

This book deals with dynamic and stochastic methods for multi-project planning. Based on the idea of using queueing networks for the analysis of dynamic-stochastic multi-project environments this book addresses two problems: detailed scheduling of project activities, and integrated order...
