Abstract

This lecture deals with mathematical models and methods for the analysis and performance evaluation of real world "queueing systems".

Objective

Analysis and Optimization of Queueing Systems

Content

The goal of this lecture is to present mathematical models and methods for the analysis and performance evaluation of real world "queueing systems". After the discussion of the preliminary stochastic processes - in the first place the poisson process as well as markov chains - some basic single station queueing models (like M/M/1 and M/G/1 model) are introduced and their practical application for the performance analysis is illustrated. The single station models are later generalized into the so called "queueing network models" which prove to be of great value for the modeling and optimization of complex multi resource systems which are present in most modern industrial and manufacturing facilities.
