Computing the distribution of the maximum in balls-and-boxes problems with application to clusters of disease cases

We present a rapid method for the exact calculation of the cumulative distribution function of the maximum of multinomially distributed random variables. The method runs in time O(mn), where m is the desired maximum and n is the number of variables. We apply the method to the analysis of two situati...
