This paper describes the Queueing Network Analyzer (QNA), a software package developed at Bell Laboratories to calculate approximate congestion measures for a network of queues with first-come, first-served discipline and no capacity constraints.Expand
This paper reviews the Fourier-series method for calculating cumulative distribution functions (cdf's) and probability mass functions (pmf's) by numerically inverting characteristic functions, Laplace transforms and generating functions.Expand
This paper facilitates applications of the continuous mapping theorem by determining when several important functions and sequences of functions preserve convergence.Expand
Queueing models can usefully represent production systems experiencing congestion due to irregular flows, but exact analyses of these queueing models are difficult.Expand
