Load balancing and queueing theory constitute fundamental pillars in the analysis and optimisation of complex service systems. These disciplines merge mathematical modelling and algorithmic strategies ...

Queueing theory provides the mathematical framework to analyse and optimise systems where congestion and waiting times are inherent, while optimal pricing strategies focus on designing cost structures ...

Background: Mass vaccination is a cornerstone of public health emergency preparedness and response. However, injudicious placement of vaccination sites can lead to the formation of long waiting lines ...

Abstract: The queueing theory has been extended for designing large queueing systems. In the large queueing systems, walking time from the head of the queue to the service windows is too large to ...

We all get stuck in long queues of elevators in crowded buildings like hospitals just because people keep pressing the wrong direction button. Some want to go up, but they press down, and others want ...
