The material of this book is based on several courses which have
been delivered for a long time at the Moscow Institute for Physics
and Technology. Some parts have formed the subject of lectures
given at various universities throughout the world: Freie
Universitat of Berlin, Chalmers University of Technology and the
University of Goteborg, University of California at Santa Barbara
and others. The subject of the book is the theory of queues. This
theory, as a mathematical discipline, begins with the work of A.
Erlang, who examined a model of a telephone station and obtained
the famous formula for the distribution of the number of busy lines
which is named after him. Queueing theory has been applied to the
study of numerous models: emergency aid, road traffic, computer
systems, etc. Besides, it has lead to several related disciplines
such as reliability and inventory theories which deal with similar
models. Nevertheless, many parts of the theory of queues were
developed as a "pure science" with no practical applications. The
aim of this book is to give the reader an insight into the
mathematical methods which can be used in queueing theory and to
present examples of solving problems with the help of these
methods. Of course, the choice of the methods is quite subjective.
Thus, many prominent results have not even been mentioned.
