Description
The increasing interest in queueing networks with blocking is mainly due to the fact that these models arise naturally in computer systems, communication systems and production systems. This volume, the result of the first international workshop on queueing networks with blocking, presents research consisting of theoretical developments and practical applications. Scientists and practitioners in the areas of computer science, industrial engineering, operations research and management science can benefit from the material collected here.
