Publisher: Taylor & Francis Ltd


The rise of big data, machine learning, and the demand for parallel processing technologies have made fork-join queues increasingly relevant in today's world. In this comprehensive book, new estimates of the average response time in fork-join queues are proposed, opening up exciting research opportunities.

Analysis of Fork-Join Systems: Network of Queues with Precedence Constraints delves into numerical methods to estimate the average response time of fork-join queueing networks. It presents novel, simple expressions for the mean response time, which are conjectured for the first time. Extensive experiments are conducted to validate the accuracy of these conjectures and algorithms, making the book invaluable for graduate students, professors, and researchers in operations research, management science, industrial engineering, computer science, and electrical engineering.

Furthermore, this book is a valuable resource for students and researchers in academia and industry alike, providing valuable insights into fork-join queues and their applications.
