Retrial Queueing Systems : A Computational Approach
Retrial Queueing Systems: A Computational Approach also : Presents motivating examples in telephone and computer networks. / Establishes a comparative analysis of the retrial queues versus standard queues with waiting lines and queues with losses. / Integrates a wide range of techniques applied to the main M/G/1 and M/M/c retrial queues, and variants with general retrial times, finite population and the discrete-time case. / Surveys basic results of the matrix-analytic formalism and emphasizes the related tools employed in retrial queues. / Discusses a few selected retrial queues with QBD, GI/M/1 and M/G/1 structures.
An Introduction to Queueing Theory: and Matrix-Analytic Methods
The present textbook contains the recordsof a two–semester course on que- ing theory, including an introduction to matrix–analytic methods. This book provides a mathematical introduction to the theory of queuing theory and matrix-analytic methods … . The style of the text … is concise and rigorous. The proofs are presented for study. Each chapter concludes with a set of exercises inviting readers to prove supplementary results and review particular aspects of the theory. The book under review attempts to give an introduction to the theory of queues without losing contact with its applicability. … For instructors who prefer the topics covered, this book is a nice candidate as they do not need to choose the topics but only need to elaborate on them. Nevertheless, it would be a good reference book for an introductory course in queuing theory, stochastic modelling, or applied probability
