Analyzing Uncertainty: Probability Distributions and Simulation
Carraway, Robert L.Nota técnica DARDEN-QA-0660-EAnálisis de decisionesThis note introduces simulation as a tool to analyze uncertainty in business decisions.

A simple example involving both a discrete and a continuous (triangle) distribution is used. The note is...Desde 8,20 €
