Product Description
An integrated and up-to-date treatment of applied stochastic processes and queueing theory, with an emphasis on time-averages and long-run behavior. Theory demonstrates practical effects, such as priorities, pooling of queues, and bottlenecks. Appropriate for senior/graduate courses in queueing theory in Operations Research, Computer Science, Statistics, or Industrial Engineering departments. (vs. Ross, Karlin, Kleinrock, Heyman)

Stochastic Modelling March 24, 2000

THis book deal comprehensively about stochastic process and queues. The book starts with refreshing probability theory. It has indepth details about renewal theory, explanation of renewal theorems & regenerative processes. Examples for those processes are also well said. Then the book turns its attention to Discrete Time Markov Chains and has carried out indepth explanation for DTMC with suitable examples and the excercises are really a fun to solve. Then the author turns his attention to Continuous TIme Markov Process and explains in detail about CTMC with examples. Queueing theory is dealt with by giving treatment to Markovian queues first, then to M/G/1, G/M/1 and G/G/1. Also queues in tandem are well discussed.
