Praise for the Third Edition "This is one of the best books available. Its excellent organizational structure allows quick reference to specific models and its clear presentation . . . solidifies the understanding of the concepts being presented."

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 of key concepts and formulae, allowing readers to work with each section independently, while a summary table at the end of the book outlines the types of queues that have been discussed and their results. In addition, two new appendices have been added, discussing transforms and generating functions as well as the fundamentals of differential and difference equations. New examples are now included along with problems that incorporate QtsPlus software, which is freely available via the book s related Web site.
With its accessible style and wealth of real-world examples, Fundamentals of Queueing Theory , Fourth Edition is an ideal book for courses on queueing theory at the upper-undergraduate and graduate levels.

Pressezitat
"This exceptional book is a most welcome text for advanced university undergraduate and/or graduate students. It is built on the solid foundation of the three previous widely acclaimed editions since 1975 that have been among the few cornerstones of texts in the field. The new edition contains a superb blend of theoretical and contemporary real-world examples." -Dr. Percy Brill, Department of Management Science and Department of Mathematics and Statistics, University of WindsorPraise for the third edition, "this is one of the best books available for use as a textbook for a course and for an applied reference book. Its excellent organizational structure allows quick reference to specific models and its clear presentation coupled with the use of the QTS software solidifies the understanding of the concepts being presented. I highly recommend this book to educators and applied researchers." --IEE Transactions on Operations Engineering
