Summary

Mastering Queueing Networks: From Fluid Limits to Ride-Sharing Algorithms

Applications of queueing network models have exploded in recent years, impacting areas like scheduling in manufacturing, patient flow in healthcare, load balancing in cloud computing, and matching in ride sharing.

Traditional methods struggle with the size and complexity of these problems, but their scale allows for insightful approximations. This book provides the first comprehensive exploration of fl…
