Description
The recent explosion of technological advances in computer and communications systems has caused a resurgence of interest in queuing theory and its applications. The progress of research has uncovered several new developments, and amongst those studies in depth here are algorithmic and numerical approaches, design and control, inference, simulation techniques and queuing networks. The book provides a broad analysis of current research activity and includes chapters by internationally established authors. Professor N.U. Prabhu also contributes his thoughts and perspectives on the up-to-date trends and future developments in queuing theory. This volume should be of value and interest to researchers, statisticians, and all those concerned with queuing theory as an important field within the discipline of applied probability.
