The Postdoc Queue: A Labour Force in Waiting
, 2018Postdoctoral fellows (postdocs) comprise a large sector of the US scientific workforce. A substantial majority of postdocs are in a holding pattern, seeking tenure‐track assistant professorships.

Impact of Queue Configuration on Service Time: Evidence from a Supermarket
Management Sciences, 2017We study how queue configuration affects human servers’ service time by comparing dedicated queues with shared queues using field data from a natural experiment in a supermarket.

To Queue or Not to Queue: A Rejoinder
Interfaces, 1979It's a good feeling to see a scholar of Peter Kolesar's stature take the time and effort to expound his views so eloquently in Interfaces. But while there is value in Professor Kolesar's comments, I feel he does not delve deeply enough. First, let me give credit to Professor Byrd [Byrd, Jack. Jr. 1978. The value of queuing theory.

Journal of Applied Probability, 1969
A “correlated queue” is defined to be a queueing model in which the arrival pattern influences the service pattern or vice versa. A particular model of this nature is considered in this paper. It is such that the service time of a customer is directly proportional to the interval between his own arrival and that of his predecessor.

Journal of Applied Probability, 1966
The more one studies the vast and ever-growing literature of the theory of queues, the more one is bewildered by the wide variety of mathematical techniques which different authors have used to analyse the same or similar problems. And yet it seems that, beneath the superficial diversity, there is a deeper unity obscured by the special devices and ...

Finite Queues and Cyclic Queues
Operations Research, 1960The finite queue problem, for which tables exist [Peck, L. G., R. N. Hazelwood. 1958. Finite Queuing Tables. ORSA Publications in Operations Research No. 2. Wiley, New York.], is a special case of the cyclic queue [Koenigsberg, E. 1958. Oper. Res. Quart. 9 22–35].

Queue Length Dependent Priority Queues
Management Science, 1971Priority rules that are mixtures of pre-emption and postponable rules are analyzed. Whether a pre-emption occurs is made to depend on some factor in addition to priority class. A lower priority customer is pre-empted if and only if the queue length of higher priority customers is N, a decision parameter.

Biometrika, 1957
In dealing with problems of queueing, several writers (Kolmogoroff, 1932; Erlang*; Kendall, 1951, 1953; Lindley, 1952; Takacs, 1955) have discussed the situation where queue stability is obtained by assuming that the demand for service does not overload the service mechanism.
