Queueing theory is the mathematical study of waiting lines, or queues. [1] A queueing model is constructed so that queue lengths and waiting time can be predicted. [1] Queueing theory is generally considered a branch of operations research because the results are often used when making business decisions about the resources needed to provide a ...
A common exercise in learning how to build discrete-event simulations is to model a queueing system, such as customers arriving at a bank teller to be served by a clerk. In this example, the system objects are Customer and Teller, while the system events are Customer-Arrival, Service-Start and Service-End. Each of these events comes with its ...
In queueing theory, a discipline within the mathematical theory of probability, a BCMP network is a class of queueing network for which a product-form equilibrium distribution exists. It is named after the authors of the paper where the network was first described: Baskett , Chandy , Muntz, and Palacios.
Monetary circuit theory is a heterodox theory of monetary economics, particularly money creation, often associated with the post-Keynesian school. [1] It holds that money is created endogenously by the banking sector, rather than exogenously by central bank lending; it is a theory of endogenous money.
In mathematical queueing theory, Little's law (also result, theorem, lemma, or formula [1] [2]) is a theorem by John Little which states that the long-term average number L of customers in a stationary system is equal to the long-term average effective arrival rate λ multiplied by the average time W that a customer spends in the system.
Queueing Systems is a peer-reviewed scientific journal covering queueing theory. It is published by Springer Science+Business Media. The current editor-in-chief is Sergey Foss. According to the Journal Citation Reports, the journal has a 2019 impact factor of 1.114. [1]
Representation of a FIFO queue. In computing and in systems theory, first in, first out (the first in is the first out), acronymized as FIFO, is a method for organizing the manipulation of a data structure (often, specifically a data buffer) where the oldest (first) entry, or "head" of the queue, is processed first.
In queueing theory, a discipline within the mathematical theory of probability, Burke's theorem (sometimes the Burke's output theorem [1]) is a theorem (stated and demonstrated by Paul J. Burke while working at Bell Telephone Laboratories) asserting that, for the M/M/1 queue, M/M/c queue or M/M/∞ queue in the steady state with arrivals is a Poisson process with rate parameter λ:
