Queueing Networks Modeling Software for Manufacturing (bibtex)

by Rabta, Boualem, Alp, Arda and Reiner, Gerald

Abstract:

This paper reviews the evolution of queueing networks software and its use in manufacturing. In particular, we will discuss two different groups of software tools. First, there are queueing networks software packages which require a good level of familiarity with the theory. In the other hand, there are some packages designed for manufacturing where the model development process is automated. Issues related to practical considerations will be adressed and recommendations will be given.
