Review text

Most queueing control problems cannot be solved explicitly because of their complexity and enormous computational demands. To overcome analytical difficulties, researchers turn to approximate or heuristic methods. The book provides a number of results in queueing control from the point of view of fuzzy logic. The authors consider fuzzy control as an effective approach in nonlinear or large-scale systems control, especially when mathematical models are difficult to obtain or do not exist at all. A number of control problems, which were developed by the authors in the past decade, show that fuzzy control is computationally efficient and, in conjunction with analytical results, precise. The material of the book can be useful to advanced undergraduate and graduate students. Also, researchers and practitioners in the field of queueing control, systems analysis, manufacturing, and communications may benefit from it. The material is organized into nine chapters. The introductory outlines the book and discusses background. Chapters 2 and 3 provide technical background on fuzzy logic and fuzzy control. Chapters 4--7 cover fuzzy queueing control. These chapters are organized along the lines of problem description, architecture of the fuzzy logic controllers, and numerical examples. Comparisons are provided whenever feasible. Chapter 8 presents applications to the Internet. Chapter 9 concludes with suggestions for further investigations.
