Project management seems to be an obvious application for the queueing theory. Risks within the projects come and go. Projects within a portfolio get started and finished. Teams get occupied and freed.
But all the books I have checked provide only examples from computer networks, public services, games and finance.
Google Scholar spits nothing on the topic of "project management"&"queueing theory". Am I using it wrong?
Hi Arseniy Puntikov,
It's quite annoying, but I actually found only a few mentions about queueing theory application in project management:
Article Application of queuing theory for effective equipment utiliz...
Article Improving multiproject management by using a queuing theory approach

Conference Paper Application of Lean Six Sigma Methodology and Queueing Theor...
Chapter Application of Queuing Theory in Construction Management
Article Queueing theory and operations management
Maybe you've just discovered a new scientific niche? Or maybe the use of queuing theory is so intuitive that it is automatically implemented in project management methodologies such as lean management, kanban or scrum? Check out the articles above.
