1. The number of breakdowns of a computer network follows a
Poisson process with rate α = 0.2 breakdowns per week. This means
the number of breakdowns during a period of t weeks is a Poisson
random variable with parameter λ = 0.2t.
(a) What is the probability that exactly 3 breakdowns are to occur
during a 10-week period?
(b) What is the probability that at least 2 breakdowns are to occur
in next 10 weeks?
(c) How many breakdowns are expected to occur in 52
weeks?

A computer network experiences attacks according to a Poisson process, at an average rate of 0.5 attacks per week. Let the random variable X measure the number of weeks until the network experiences its first attack. What is the probability the first attack will occur after the second week. That is to say, what is P(X 2) Round your answer to four decimal places. Answer: Save response
Suppose small aircraft arrive at a certain airport according to a Poisson process with rate α = 8 per hour, so that the number of arrivals during a time period of t hours is a Poisson rv with parameter μ = 8t. (Round your answers to three decimal places.) (a) What is the probability that exactly 6 small aircraft arrive during a 1-hour period? What is the probability that at least 14 small aircraft arrive during a 1-hour period? What...
Two different computer systems are monitored for a total of n weeks. Let Xi denote the number of breakdowns of the first system during the ith week, and suppose the Xis are independent and drawn from a Poisson distribution with parameter A1. Similarly, let Yi denote the number of breakdowns of the second system during the ith week, and assume independence with each Yi Poisson with parameter i2. Derive the mle's of 1, A2, and i -2. [Hint: Using independence,...

The occurrence of crashes of a computer is occurring according to a homogeneous Poisson process (HPP) with a rate of λ = 3 per month. (a) What is the probability that in a span of two months, the computer will crash at least 6 times? (b) What is the probability that in a two-month period, the computer will not crash at all? (c) What is the probability that the first crash will occur after 0.5 months?
Problem 4: The number of breakdowns of a machine is a random variable with λ = 2.2 breakdowns per month. Find the probability that the machine will work during any given month with: No breakdowns One breakdown Two breakdowns At least two breakdowns What is the expected value for the distribution What is the standard deviation for the distribution
The number of hits to a Web site follows a Poisson process. Hits occur at the rate of 0.9 per minute between 7:00 P.M. and 10:00 P.M. Given below are three scenarios for the number of hits to the Web site. Compute the probability of each scenario between 8:12 P.M. and 8:21 P.M. (a) exactly four. (b) fewer than four. (c) at least four.
An article suggests that a Poisson process can be used to represent the occurrence of structural loads over time. Suppose the mean time between occurrences of loads is 0.5 year. For every single part, clearly define the random variable of interest using the context of this problem. (Hint: We are given that the mean time between occurrences of loads is 0.5 year. It is not the λ value to be used in Poisson process since it is the mean time...

2. The number of hits on a popular Web page follows a Poisson process with an arrival rate of 5 per minute. One begins observation at exactly noon tomorrow. Let X(1) be the number of hits on the webpage by time t. What is the distribution of the number of hits in the first minute? Give the name of the distribution and the value(s) of parameter(s). What is the probability of 4 or fewer hits in the first minute? What...
