Review

From the reviews:

“This textbook is intended for undergraduate and master students mainly in engineering and (lesser) in mathematical sciences. The prerequisite for students are elementary calculus based probability and statistics. The book is devoted to modeling of stochastic processes describing a wide class of manufacturing systems, and the basis methodology is well-developed queueing theory.” (Evsei Morozov, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1170, 2009)
