Preface This textbook was developed to fill the need for an accessible but comprehensive presentation of the analytical approaches for modeling and analyzing models of manufacturing and production systems. It is an out growth of the efforts within theIndustrialandSystemsEngineeringDepartmentatTexasA&Mtodevelopand teachananalyticallybasedundergraduatecourseonprobabilisticmodelingofman- ufacturingtypesystems.Thelevelofthistextbookisdirectedatundergraduateand masters students in engineering and mathematical sciences. The only prerequisite forstudentsusingthistextbookisapreviouscoursecoveringcalculus-basedprob- abilityandstatistics.Theunderlyingmethodologyisqueueingtheory,andweshall develop the basic concepts in queueing theory in sufficient detail that the reader need not have previously covered it. Queueing theory is a well-established disci- plinedatingbacktotheearly1900’sworkofA.K.Erlang,aDanishmathematician, on telephone traffic congestion. Although there are many textbooks on queueing theory,thesetextsaregenerallyorientedtothemethodologicaldevelopmentofthe fieldandexactresultsandnottothepracticalapplicationofusingapproximations inrealisticmodelingsituations.Theapplicationofqueueingtheorytomanufactur- ing type systems started with the approximation based work of Ward Whitt in the 1980’s.HispaperonQNA(aqueueingnetworkanalyzer)in1983isthebasefrom whichmostappliedmodelingeffortshaveevolved. There are several textbooks with titles similar to this book. Principle among these are: Modeling and Analysis of Manufacturing Systems by Askin and Stan- dridge, Manufacturing Systems Engineering by Stanley Gershwin, Queueing The- ory in Manufacturing Systems Analysis and Design by Papadopoulos, Heavey and Browne, Performance Analysis of Manufacturing Systems by Tayfur Altiok, StochasticModelingandAnalysisofManufacturingSystems,editedbyDavidYao, and Stochastic Models of Manufacturing Systems by Buzacott and Shanthikumar. Each of these texts, along with several others contributes greatly to the field. The book that most closely aligns with the motivation, level, and intent of this book is Factory Physics by Hopp and Spearman. Their approach and analysis is highly recommendedreading,however,theirbook’sscopeisonthelargerfieldofproduc- vii viii Preface tionandoperationsmanagement.Thus,itdoesnotprovidethedepthandbreathof analyticalmodelingproceduresthatarepresentedinthistext. Thistextisaboutthedevelopmentofanalyticalapproximationmodelsandtheir useinevaluatingfactoryperformance.Thetoolsneededfortheanalyticalapproach are fully developed. One useful non-analytical tool that is not fully developed in this textbook is simulation modeling. In practice as well as in the development of the models in this text, simulation is extensively used as a verification tool. Even thoughthedevelopmentofsimulationmodelsisonlymodestlyaddressed,wewould encourageinstructorswhousethisbookintheircurriculumafterasimulationcourse to ask students to simulate some of the homework problems so that a comparison canbemadeoftheanalysisusingthemodelspresentedherewithsimulationmod- els. By developing simulation models students will have a better understanding of themodelingassumptionsandtheaccuracyoftheanalyticalapproximations.Inad- dition several chapters include an appendix that contains instructions inthe use of MicrosoftExcelasanaidinmodelingorinbuildingsimplesimulationmodels. Forthissecondedition,suggestionsfromvariousinstructorswhohaveusedthe textbook havebeenincorporated.Becauseoftheimportanceofsimulationmodel- ing,thissecondeditionalsoincludesanintroductiontoevent-drivensimulations.

In addition several in- dividuals have helped in improving the text by using a draft copy while teaching the material to undergraduates including Eylem Tekin at Texas A&M, Natarajan
