Table of ContentsQueues: The Art of Modelling.- Markov Chains and Queues in Discrete Time.- Homogeneous Markov Processes on Discrete State Spaces.- Markovian Queues in Continuous Time.- Markovian Queueing Networks.- Renewal Theory.- Markov Renewal Theory.- Semi-Markovian Queues.- Phase-Type Distributions.- Markovian Arrival Processes.- The GI/PH/1 Queue.- The BMAP/G/1 Queue.- Discrete Time Approaches.- Spatial Markovian Arrival Processes.ReviewsFrom the reviews: 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. ! I have found this to be a useful reference text and would recommend it to those wishing to delve into the mathematical theory of basic queuing theory. (Michael NG, SIAM Review, Vol. 48 (3), 2006) 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, and a valuable one to add to a professional's bookshelf.
