Features: The vacation random service system is a new development in classical queueing theory and has important applications in a series of high-tech fields. This book systematically introduces the phase-type distribution theory and provides a unified and rigorous discussion of research achievements in the field of vacation queues over the past 20 years at home and abroad, establishing a fundamental theoretical system centered on random decomposition. A significant portion of the content in the book reflects the author's recent research findings, offering an overview of the research landscape in vacation random service systems. The book is divided into five chapters, covering topics such as phase-type distributions, M/G/1G vacation queues, GI/M/1 vacation queues, multi-server vacation queueing systems, and the application of vacation queues in computer communication networks. The book is written in an accessible manner, with clear reasoning and rigorous arguments, emphasizing systematicity, advancement, and practicality. It is suitable for graduate students, teachers, and researchers in fields such as stochastic operations research and applied probability at comprehensive universities and institutions of higher learning. It can also serve as a reference for engineering technicians in fields such as telecommunications, computer science, transportation, and management.
