Using Queue Theory to Analysis and Evaluation of the Logistics Centre Workload
Journal Title: Archives of Transport - Year 2013, Vol 25, Issue 1
Abstract
The article presents an application of queuing theory (mass service) to describe transportation process. It presents the essential concepts of the queuing theory. The process of moving a load unit through the logistics centre was presented. To illustrate the issues an example of five-level, two-input queuing networks was examined
