University Libraries Promotion and Tenure Recognition

The reason I chose this book is because I use it practically every day for my teaching and research. In six of the seven courses I have taught so far in Penn State, I have used this book as either a text or a reference. In more than half my papers I have referred to results from this book. This book is both a text book as well as a reference book. The book is very special to me and I would recommend it to anyone interested in learning about stochastic systems and discrete queues.
