2 Topics i Queuig Theory 9. Itroductio to Queues; Little s Law; M/M/. Markovia Birth-ad-Death Queues. The M/G/ Queue ad Extesios 2. riority Queues; State Represetatios 3. ogestio ricig 4. Dyamic Behavior of Queues 5. Hypercube Queuig Model 6. The Queue Iferece Egie; sychology of Queues

3 Lecture Outlie Itroductio to queuig systems oceptual represetatio of queuig systems odes for queuig models Termiology ad otatio Little s Law ad basic relatioships Birth-ad-death processes The M/M/ queuig system State trasitio diagrams Steady-state probabilities

4 Queues Queuig Theory is the brach of operatios research cocered with waitig lies (delays/cogestio A queuig system cosists of a user source, a queue ad a service facility with oe or more idetical parallel servers A queuig etwork is a set of itercoected queuig systems Fudametal parameters of a queuig system: Demad rate apacity (service rate Demad iter-arrival times Service times Queue capacity ad disciplie (fiite vs. ifiite; FIFO/FFS, SIRO, LIFO, priorities Myriad details (feedback effects, jockeyig, etc.

5 A Geeric Queuig System Servers Arrival poit at the system Departure poit from the system Source of users/ customers Queue Arrivals process Size of user source Queue disciplie ad Queue capacity Service process Number of servers

9 Stregths ad Weakesses of Queuig Theory Queuig models ecessarily ivolve approximatios ad simplificatio of reality Results give a sese of order of magitude, chages relative to a baselie, promisig directios i which to move losed-form results essetially limited to steady state coditios ad derived primarily (but ot solely for birth-ad-death systems ad phase systems Some useful bouds for more geeral systems at steady state Numerical solutios icreasigly viable for dyamic systems
