About The Book
Rational Queueing by Refael Hassin offers one of the first unified accounts of strategic behavior in queueing systems, with a focus on the dynamics of how multiple agents (customers, servers, and managers) interact in often noncooperative ways. The book explores the performance of queueing systems under these conditions, shedding light on the economic and operational behavior that drives these systems.
Beginning with observable queues and state-dependent behavior, the book delves into models for individual utilities, social welfare, and profit maximization. Hassin also presents models for queueing networks, from simple parallel servers to complex network structures, and examines systems influenced by planned and forced vacations, such as system breakdowns. A special focus on supply chain models illustrates how, despite differing goals, agents can all benefit from the efficient operation of the system.
The book also incorporates bounded rationality, lowering the assumption of fully rational agents to better reflect real-world behavior.

Reviews
"Rational Queueing provides a comprehensive and authoritative survey of recent research on strategic behavior in queueing systems. It will serve as an indispensable reference for researchers, students, and teachers in this area." – Philipp Afèche, Associate Professor of Operations Management, University of Toronto
"This book defines and summarizes the important area of operations research that combines queueing with game theory. It is a must-have reference for anyone interested in game-theoretic considerations in queueing models." – Antonis Economou, University of Athens
