The progress of science and technology has placed Queueing Theory among the most popular disciplines in applied mathematics, operations research, and engineering. Although queueing has been on the scientific market since the beginning of this century, it is still rapidly expanding by capturing new areas in technology. Advances in Queueing provides a comprehensive overview of problems in this enormous area of science and focuses on the most significant methods recently developed. Written by a team of 24 eminent scientists, the book examines stochastic, analytic, and generic methods such as approximations, estimates and bounds, and simulation. The first chapter presents an overview of classical queueing methods from the birth of queues to the seventies. It also contains the most comprehensive bibliography of books on queueing and telecommunications to date. Each of the following chapters surveys recent methods applied to classes of queueing systems and networks followed by a discussion of open problems and future research directions. Advances in Queueing is a practical reference that allows the reader quick access to the latest methods.

Reviews for Advances in Queueing Theory, Methods, and Open Problems

The overall editing and production are excellent...There are many books on queueing theory, but I could find no other book that is directly comparable to this one...these authors are all major contributors to queueing theory, and their contributions all reflect the current state of the art. In conclusion, Advances in Queueing would be a welcome addition to the bookshelf of anyone with a scholarly interest in queueing theory. - Computing Reviews, December 1998
