      Roy, Debjit; Gupta, Akash; Pazour, Jennifer A. (International. Journal. of Automation and Logistics, 2014)
      Queue length distributions provide insight into the impact of service system design changes that go beyond simple performance measure averages; however, such distributions are difficult to estimate when service times are ...
