Modelling in Teaching Probability and Statistics at the Faculties of Technology in the Republic of Croatia

چکیده
At all levels of teaching mathematics it is necessary to implement as many as possible examples of idealised real problems which require the application of mathematical knowledge and development of mathematical models. The course probability and statistics, taught at the faculties of technology in Croatia, should therefore include examples which are connected with technologies studied at respective faculties. This paper describes the method of developing new models that can be implemented in teaching probability and statistics at the faculties of technology. As the result of this method, the examples of new tasks are obtained, from the area of printing and graphic design, which are suitable for use in teaching at the Faculty of Graphic Arts of the University of Zagreb. The described approach to the teaching process is in line with the latest guidelines of the International Mathematical Union as well as the European Executive Education Agency.

APPLICATION OF KRIGING METHOD IN SURROGATE MANAGEMENT FRAMEWORK FOR OPTIMIZATION PROBLEMS
In this paper, Kriging has been chosen as the method for surrogate construction. The basic idea behind Kriging is to use a weighted linear combination of known function values to predict a function value at a place where it is not known. Kriging attempts to determine the best combination of weights in order to minimize the error in the estimated function value. Because the actual function value...
متن کاملFUZZY INFORMATION AND STOCHASTICS
In applications there occur different forms of uncertainty. The twomost important types are randomness (stochastic variability) and imprecision(fuzziness). In modelling, the dominating concept to describe uncertainty isusing stochastic models which are based on probability. However, fuzzinessis not stochastic in nature and therefore it is not considered in probabilisticmodels.Since many years t...

متن کاملMODELLING AND ANALYSIS OF A DISCRETE-TIME PRIORITY QUEUING COMPUTER NETWORK WITH PRIORITY JUMPS USING PROBABILITY GENERATING FUNCTIONS
Priority queues have a great importance in the study of computer communication networks in which different types of traffic require different quality of service standards. The discrete-time non-preemptive priority queuing model with priority jumps is proposed in this paper. On the basis of probability generating functions mean system contents and mean queuing delay characteristics are obtained....
متن کاملa Comparison Study Between the Joint Probability Approach and Time Series Rainfall Modelling in Coastal Detention Pond Analysis (RESEARCH NOTE)
In tidally affected coastal catchments detention pond should be provided to store flood surface water. A comparison between the full simulation approach based on the joint probability method and time series rainfall modeling via the annual maximum of pond level was undertaken to investigate the assumptions of independence between variables that are necessary in the joint probability method. The...
