Overview
- Provides a concise and comprehensive account of Lévy processes
- Clearly discusses applications of Lévy processes in reliability, with special attention to life distributions and the maintenance of devices subject to degradation, as well estimating the parameters of the degradation process
- Discusses applications of Lévy processes in storage, with special emphasis on monitoring dams subject to Lévy input
- Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras

Reviews
From the book reviews:
“This is a short book and contains three chapters only. Each chapter can be seen as a review article on a specific topic. … it can be recommended as a quick introduction to reliability and storage analysis using Lévy processes.” (Enrico Scalas, Mathematical Reviews, February, 2015)
