A tutorial by the Descartes Research Group on Queueing Petri Nets was presented by Samuel Kounev at the 3rd ACM/SPEC International Conference on Performance Engineering (ICPE 2012) on April 22 in Boston, USA.
The tutorial provides: i) a brief introduction to the Queueing Petri Net (QPN) modeling formalism providing references and links for further reading, ii) An overview of modeling case studies with QPNs in different application domains, iii) Introduction of relevant tools with focus on the Queueing Petri net Modeling Environment (QPME) developed at KIT.
