A unique introduction to the innovative methodology of statistical flowgraphs This book offers a practical, application--based approach to flowgraph models for time--to--event data. It clearly shows how this innovative new methodology can be used to analyze data from semi--Markov processes without prior knowledge of stochastic processes----opening the door to interesting applications in survival analysis and reliability as well as stochastic processes.
