Victory in the Kargil War: Honoring Our Heroes on Vijay Diwas

On July 26th, we observe Vijay Diwas, commemorating the victory of Indian forces in the Kargil War. This day is a tribute to the bravery and sacrifices of those who fought for our freedom, ensuring we live in peace. The sacrifices made by our soldiers inspire us to strive for excellence in our endeavors. This document also introduces the course on Stochastic Modeling and Simulation (MEL770) led by Asst. Professor Nomesh Bolia, detailing the course structure, evaluation methods, and relevant references for a robust understanding of stochastic systems.
