The Theory of Queuing Systems with Correlated Flows

This book is dedicated to the systematization and development of models, methods, and algorithms for queuing systems with correlated arrivals. After first setting up the basic tools needed for the study of queuing theory, the authors concentrate on compli

Foreword

It is my pleasure and honor to write this Foreword. As is known, every product or process we face in day-to-day activities involves either a manufacturing aspect or a service aspect (and possibly both). Queuing theory plays a major role in both these aspects. There are a number of excellent books written on queuing theory in the last many decades starting with the classical book by Takacs in 1960s to Kleinrock’s two volumes in the 1970s to Neuts’ ground-breaking ones on matrix-analytic methods in the 1980s. Along the way a number of notable books (undergraduate and graduate level) were published by Alfa, Bhat, Cohen, Gross and Harris, He, Latouche and Ramaswami, and Trivedi, et al., among others. This book, written by well-known researchers on queueing and related areas, is unique in the sense that the entire book is devoted to queues with correlated arrivals. Since the introduction of Markovian arrival processes by Neuts, possible correlation pres
