Queues And Inventories

Description:

In this book Professor Prabhu has provided us with a very clear and mathematically unified account of the stochastic process theory of queues, inventories, and dam storage. These subjects now have such a vast literature that it would not be possible to write an encyclopedic account in one volume of less than three hundred pages. The author has wisely chosen to give an account of the mathematical theory using a unified notation and approach, ignoring practical or numerical illustra-tions and some of the more specialised queueing problems. In spite of these restrictions a very large amount of ground is covered, and this is achieved by concentrating on the mathematics which is described in a very clear, accurate and concise manner.
