Why study probability?

  1. Communication systems. Noise. Information.
  2. Control systems. Noise in observations. Noise in interference.
  3. Computer systems. Random loads. Networks. Random packet arrival times.
Probability can become a powerful engineering tool. One way of viewing it is as "quantified common sense.'' Great success will come to those whose tool is sharp!
