A result in queueing theory [PDF]
Bulletin of the Australian Mathematical Society, 1978 In a single-server queueing system, subject to the queue discipline ‘First come first served’, the equilibrium distribution function of the waiting time of a server depends on the distribution of the random variable (u) which is the difference between the service time and the inter-arrival time.

Enhancing mass vaccination programs with queueing theory and spatial optimization [PDF]
Frontiers in Public HealthBackgroundMass vaccination is a cornerstone of public health emergency preparedness and response. However, injudicious placement of vaccination sites can lead to the formation of long waiting lines or queues, which discourages individuals from waiting to

Could we employ the queueing theory to improve efficiency during future mass causality incidents? [PDF]
Scandinavian Journal of Trauma, Resuscitation and Emergency Medicine, 2019 Background Preparation for a disaster or accident-related mass casualty events is often based on experience. The objective measures or tools for evaluating decision-making and effectiveness during such events are underdeveloped.
