Other applications

Abstract

This chapter contains miscellaneous computational probability applications. Section 15.1 concerns algorithms for calculating the probability distribution of the longest path of a series-parallel stochastic activity network with continuous activity durations. Section 15.2 concerns the use of APPL in determining whether a continuous random variable obeys Benford’s law. Finally, Sect. 15.3 contains miscellaneous computational probability applications that are not covered elsewhere in the monograph.
