教學 (課程) 目標： 1. To make the students experience the basic problem-solving approaches on the various engineering fields. (Not only computer science fields but also EE-related, Management fields, etc.) 2. To promote the mathematical capability on how to analyze and solve the engineering problems with which they may face in the future. 3. This course helps the students to gain the capability on the modeling issues of multifarious application fields, and also on the reliability / availability issues. 4. For a one-semester course, this course provides and strikes a reasonable balance between the analytical and quantitative approaches to the study of probability and statistics. And also, this material can enhance the students on the mathematical background for their engineering training, especially on the modeling issues of multifarious application or engineering fields.
