J.W. Cohen and O.J. Boxma

Statistica Neerlandica, 1985, vol. 39, issue 2, 143-158

Abstract: The evolution of queueing theory is sketched from its origin in Teletraffic, via its growth to maturity as a mathematical discipline in Operations Research, to its present position as an indispensable tool in the performance analysis of complex computer—and communication networks. The Dutch postwar contributions to this evolution receive some special attention, on the occasion of the celebration of the Dutch Society for Statistics and ‘Operations Research’ fourth decennium.
