QSIM: A Queueing Theory Model with Various Probability Distribution Functions

Abstract

QSIM is a queueing theory model developed to interpret the various undertakings involved in military operations. The multiple probability distribution functions (PDFs) for arrival, service, and renege rates not only allow QSIM to analyze a variety of specific warfare tasks (especially those characterized by nonexponential PDFs), but they also ensure that the model is applicable to many other situations. Moreover, the relatively efficient run times permit the user to analyze a range of input values quickly.
