There is a focus on applications in modern telecommunication systems.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eIt\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003e \u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003epresents how most queueing models in discrete-time can be set up as discrete-time Markov chains. Techniques such as matrix-analytic methods (MAM) that can used to analyze the resulting Markov chains are included. This book covers single node systems, tandem system and queueing networks. It shows how queues with time-varying parameters can be analyzed, and illustrates numerical issues associated with computations for the discrete-time queueing systems. Optimal control of queues is also covered.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eApplied Discrete-Time Queues\u003c\/i\u003e targets researchers, advanced-level students and analysts in the field of telecommunication networks. It is suitable as a reference book and can also be used as a secondary text book in computer engineering and computer science.  Examples and exercises are included.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2015-12-26\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9781493934188\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-1-4939-3420-1\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 383\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer New York","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47440051798156,"sku":"9781493934188","price":98.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9781493934188.jpg?v=1775914978","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9781493934188","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
