o Markov Chains and the Elements of Queuing Theory.
Grading Scheme:
Midterm: 35%
Final: 65%
Important Notice:
o Failing to write the midterm results in losing the 35% assigned to the midterm.
In the case of medical emergency, a student may be given permission to re-write
the midterm.
o Although assignments do not carry any marks, they are very important for the
understanding of the course material. Therefore, you are strongly encouraged to
do them on time and with sufficient care.
