Abstract:

An account of the development of queueing theory from an operational research perspective is given. The theory discussed ranges from the simple queue, finite queues, and queues in tandem, to non-Poisson input and service-queueing systems. A methodology for analysing the systems is outlined, and appropriate references given. All these developments relate to models used in investigating real problems undertaken by differential operational research departments.
