Stochastic effects are frequently disregarded when designing material handling or production systems. It is also a useful supplement in Masters and Ph.D. Queueing models were successfully applied for material handling and production systems. courses for students interested in engineering and operations management.. The book bridges the gap between stochastic modelling and practical engineering by combining the theoretical background with modelling examples in several application domains. The book helps practitioners to understand the major influences for inventory and lead times. Based on this knowledge it is possible to identify areas of improvement in material handling systems. Cause and effects for response times are derived
