Thoroughly revised and expanded to reflect the latest developments in the field, "Fundamentals of Queueing Theory", Fourth Edition continues to present the basic statistical principles that are necessary to analyze the probabilistic nature of queues. Rather than presenting a narrow focus on the subject, this update illustrates the wide-reaching, fundamental concepts in queueing theory and its applications to diverse areas such as computer science, engineering, business, and operations research. This update takes a numerical approach to understanding and making probable estimations relating to queues, with a comprehensive outline of simple and more advanced queueing models. Newly featured topics of the Fourth Edition include: Retrial queues; Approximations for queueing networks; Numerical inversion of transforms; Determining the appropriate number of servers to balance quality and cost of service. Each chapter provides a self-contained presentation...
