In this paper we investigate some relations between the Petri net formalism and the queueing networks with blocking. This type of queueing network models are used to represent systems with finite capacity resource constraints, such as production, communication and computer systems. Various blocking mechanisms have been defined in the literature to represent the different behaviours of real syst...

Queueing network models have been extensively applied to represent and analyze resource sharing systems such as communication and computer systems and they have proved to be a powerful and versatile tool for system performance evaluation and prediction. Product form queueing networks have a simple closed form expression of the stationary state distribution that allow to define efficient algorit...

queueing is a package that solves and provides the main performance measures for both basic Markovian queueing models and single and multiclass product-form queueing networks. It can be used both in education and for professional purposes. It provides an intuitive, straightforward way to build queueing models using S3 methods. The package solves Markovian models of the form M/M/c/K/M/FCFS, open...
