Summary:
The application of engineering principles in divergent fields such as
management science and communications as well as the advancement of
several approaches in theory and computation have led to growing
interest in queueing models, creating the need for a comprehensive
text. Emphasizing Markovian structures and the techniques that occur
in different models, A Course on Queueing Models discusses recent
developments in the field, different methodological tools - some of
which are not available elsewhere - and computational techniques.
While most books essentially address the classical methods of
queueing theory, this text covers a broad range of methods both in
theory and in computation. The first part of the textbook exposes you
to many fundamental concepts at an introductory level and provides
tools for practitioners. It discusses the basics in queueing theory
for Markovian and regenerative non-Markovian models, statistical
inference, simulation and some computational procedures, network and
discrete-time queues, algebraic and combinatorial methods, and
optimization. The second part delves deeper into the topics examined
in the first part by presenting more advanced methods. This part also
includes general queues, duality in queues, and recent advancements
on computational methods and discrete-time queues. Each chapter
contains a discussion section that summarizes material and highlights
special features. Incorporating different queueing models, A Course
on Queueing Models achieves an ideal balance between theory and
practice, making it compatible for advanced undergraduate and
graduate students, applied statisticians, and engineers.
