Abstract: There are many problems in hydrology and the construction of dams, as well as in queues arising from telephone traffic and computer job sequencing, which require the use of probabilistic methods. This paper gives some examples of these, with a view to encouraging the interest of engineers, and in the hope that engineers will become increasingly familiar with the basic principles of probability and statistics.
