The Poisson process is one of the most widely-used counting processes. It is usually used in scenarios where we are counting the occurrences of certain events that appear to happen at a certain rate, but completely at random (without a certain structure).
For example, suppose that from historical data, we know that earthquakes occur in a certain area with a rate of 2 per month. Other than this information, the timings of earthquakes seem to be completely random. Thus, we conclude that the Poisson process might be a good model for earthquakes.
In practice, the Poisson process or its extensions have been used to model.
−− the number of car accidents at a site or in an area;
−− the location of users in a wireless network;
−− the requests for individual documents on a web server;
−− the outbreak of wars;
−− photons landing on a photodiode.

1. Economists think in terms of key concepts. List the concepts that economists think in terms of. Define opportunity cost. Use the concept of opportunity cost to explain why some things are not done. Explain why economists consider costs and benefits, instead of only benefits. Give an example from your life where you have considered both costs and benefits. Explain why it is important to consider unintended effects.
