Queueing theory is a mathematical study of waiting lines or queues used to model a wide array of practical systems such as call centres, manufacturing lines, computer networks and healthcare ...

Load balancing and queueing theory constitute fundamental pillars in the analysis and optimisation of complex service systems. These disciplines merge mathematical modelling and algorithmic strategies ...

The study of how systems with limited resources distribute those resources to elements waiting in line, and how those elements respond. Examples include data traversing computer networks, phone calls ...

“We can use some fancy math to predict how long the line will get,” Keely Croxton of Ohio State says, then apply it to related problems. In response to a listener request, “Marketplace” host Kai ...

Queueing theory rules everything around you. This newest version of our highly accessible, 30-page introduction to queueing theory demystifies the subject without requiring pages full of equations.
