Learning Outcomes

Learning outcomes

The course learning outcomes are: the study and development models that describe and analyse the behaviour and performance of queueing systems and their applications for optimal decision making. Upon successful completion of the course the student will be able to: recognize and implement M/M/1 queue model and its variants apply the Little's result recognize and implements M/G/1 queue model apply Markov processes to model queueing systems apply queueing models for decision making.

General Competences

Working independently Decision-making Adapting to new situations Production of free, creative and inductive thinking Synthesis of data and information, with the use of the necessary technology.
