On Some Common Interests among Reliability, Inventory and Queuing

Abstract

Queuing networks can be used to model maintained systems. Under many conditions, closed queuing network theory can be applied to ascertain the availability of such systems. Multi-echelon repairable item inventory systems serve as one such class of examples. Problems of common interest to the reliability, queuing, and inventory communities are highlighted, and solution techniques for these problems presented.
