Simple M/M/1 and M/D/1 simulation
- Queuing theory is the mathematics of waiting lines
- It is extremely useful in predicting and evaluating system performance.
- Queuing theory has been used for operations research. Traditional queuing theory problems refer to customers visiting a store, analogous to requests arriving at a device.
- The simplest queuing model is M/M/1 where both the arrival time and service time are exponentially distributed.
- The M/D/1 model has exponentially distributed arrival times but fixed service time
