Spring 2010 Classes

In Spring of 2010 I am taking two classes: MSCS 6020: Simulation (syllabus) and MSCS 6060: Parallel & Distributed Systems (syllabus).

Fall 2009 Classes

In Fall of 2009 I took one class:
MSCS 6010: Probability which used Statistical Inference, Second edition by Casella & Berger.
Addendum: 01/23/10
Here is the syllabus for the course.

Final Probability Update

This past December, on the fifteenth, I completed the Probability class that I was attending.
We covered Probability from the theoretical (Calculus) and analytical (MATLAB) side of things. In my first foray into theory behind Statistics, I found the relationships between the distributions to be really neat to see, and along with the Calculus, a lot [...]

Mid Term Probability Update

In the first half of the semester in the Probability course I am taking we learned (among other things) how to, given the probability distribution function for any distribution, derive, if possible, the:

Commulative Distribution Function
Population Mean
Population Variance
Population Standard Deviation
Population Median
Population Mode
Moment Generating Function

Everyone seems to be excited about the second half of the semester when [...]
