Reihe: Stochastic Modelling and Applied Probability

"This book is a highly recommendable survey of mathematical tools and results in applied probability with special emphasis on queueing theory.The second edition at hand is a thoroughly updated and considerably expended version of the first edition. This book and the way the various topics are balanced are a welcome addition to the literature. It is an indispensable source of information for both advanced graduate students and researchers." --MATHEMATICAL REVIEWS
