Large Deviations for Gaussian Queues: Modelling Communication Networks

by Michel Mandjes

This book describes how modern queuing theory can be applied to problems in telecommunication engineering. It starts with a survey of the essential theory behind Gaussian processes, large deviations, and queuing theory and then introduces the idea of a traffic processes in communication systems. The inherent flexibility of the Gaussian traffic model enables the analysis of both long-range and short-range dependent models in a single framework.
