Queues A Course in Queueing Theory /

Queueing theory (the mathematical theory of waiting lines in all its configurations) continues to be a standard major area of operations research on the stochastic side.� Therefore, universities with an active program in operations research sometimes will have an entire course devoted mainly or enti...
