Objective
ARQT aims at coordinating the work of research teams from seven scientific institutions. We plan to make progress in the stochastic modelling and computational implementation of queueing systems with repeated attempts which are useful in many telecommunication and computer networks.This is obtained by bringing together researchers specializing in theoretical and computational aspects of queueing theory, allowing them to innovate by combining their respective expertise. More precisely, the partners have previous experience on Retrial Queueing Theory and are involved in several national and international projects. Approaches and Methodology The research activities will follow four main directions: analytical innovations, control and statistical inference, approxi- mations and computational methods, and applications. ARQT will organise three workshops. They will take place at Madrid (ES) (Summer 1998), Minsk (BY) (Summer 1999) and Amsterdam (NL) (Summer 2000). The workshops will bring together ARQT members with other international experts. At each of these events, reports, proceedings and publications will mark work progress. Expected results Retrial Queueing Theory carries an important potential for applications both in academic life and in industry. The choice of an appropiate stochastic model for describing a given telecommunication network often determines the success of the application. The expected results of the working group are:
Increased scientific cooperation and communication among all the researchers
concerned with Retrial Queueing Theory,
Information dissemination of publications and activities of the working
group through a WWW page,
New analytic, computational and approximating methods for the analysis of
wide classes of retrial queueing systems and networks will be developed, Potential applications to the development of cellular communication networks in NIS countries are expected.
