Contact Mike Tanner if you need the diskette.             Performance of Computer Communication Systems: A Model-Based Approach1 review Boudewijn R. Haverkort Wiley, 1998 Probably the best modeling book around! I consider this book a lucky find. As you can probably guess, I have nearly every book remotely related to computer performance modeling, which you'll see if you look at my guide to building a web site that doesn't frustrate customers. But for some reason, I didn't have this one. When I did get a copy, it quickly became one of my favorites! The book starts with a good foundation in stochastic ...             Advances in Matrix-Analytic Methods for Stochastic Models1 review Notable Publications, Incorporated, 1998 A worthwhile addition This hard cover volume contains the papers presented at an international conference on matrix analytic methods.

However the author gives a good glimpse into the norms and modes of a potential panic scenario and the eventual queuing problems that may arise at various venues. The book is well-written, and while its pricy, it is worth the money.             Fundamentals of Queueing Networks3 reviews Hong Chen, David D. Yao Springer, 2001 Excellent Not suitable for a first course. Excellent for a more advanced course, or self study (with the right background). Covers lots of essential topics in nice, clear way, and contains many 'modern' topics that are difficult to find in any other single reference.
