Learning Outcomes

Learning outcomes

Queuing phenomena are encountered in several real-life situations. Prominent examples are service counters, elevators and traffic networks, but queuing effects also arise in supply chains, production systems and communication networks. In this course you will learn basic mathematical models for analyzing congestion effects in terms of queue lengths and waiting times. You will also develop insight into the applications of such approaches for improving the design and performance of service operations.

The course aims to enable students to:

  • explain the queuing models used in production and service systems,
  • introduce the theory and mathematical models used to solve these models.

At the end of the course, the student will be able to:

  • Learn foundations of queueing theory: basic models, key ideas and methods.
  • Understand how to apply queueing theory to model and analyze engineering systems.
  • Develop background and skills, which will allow students to subsequently study other and/or more advanced topics in queuing theory.
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.
