- Recognizing students learn better by understanding definitions, generalizations, and abstractions after seeing the applications, ideas are introduced and illustrated with real examples
- Examples cover a wide range of computer science applications, including testing program performance, measuring response time and cpu time, estimating the reliability of components and systems, evaluating algorithms and queueing systems
- Thoroughly classroom tested and mathematical derivations are kept to a minimum
- Readers are encouraged to perform the simulations in R in order to gain a firm understanding of the text’s concepts
- Readers are prompted to collect their own data throughout the book
