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.
