Böcker i Methuen's Monographs on Applied Probability and Statistics-serien

and included in the series are some of the newer applications of probability theory to stochastic models in various fields, storage and service problems, 'Monte Carlo' techniques, etc.

Finally, we hope that the monograph will be of use to teachers and students of statistics, as illustrating applications of a range of tech niques in theoretical statistics.
