Easy to read, complete resource -- great book

The book covers a lot of relevant material in sufficient detail. It's hard to find a good book on probability and queueing theory applied to computer science. This book is one of the best I have seen. The author does an excellent job of explaining the variables used in the different equations contained in the book, and also clearly explains the context in which various equations are used. Everything is well presented and easy to read. I continue to use the book as a valuable reference and highly recommend it.

Excellent Resource. Highly Recommend.

Excellent resource for statisics and queueing theory. Clear in depth presentation and plenty of examples. Author has a good presentaion style and is humorous as times. Makes you actually want to learn the material. Only fault is that it doesn't have any spreadsheet examples. (understandable though considering when it was published)
