Know about the book -

Discrete-Event Control of Stochastic Networks: Multimodularity and Regularity(English, Paperback, Altman Eitan) is written by Altman Eitan and published by Springer-Verlag Berlin and Heidelberg GmbH & Co. KG. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 3540203583 (ISBN 10) and 9783540203582 (ISBN 13).

Opening new directions in research in both discrete event dynamic systems as well as in stochastic control, this volume focuses on a wide class of control and of optimization problems over sequences of integer numbers. This is a counterpart of convex optimization in the setting of discrete optimization. The theory developed is applied to the control of stochastic discrete-event dynamic systems. Some applications are admission, routing, service allocation and vacation control in queuing networks. Pure and applied mathematicians will enjoy reading the book since it brings together many disciplines in mathematics: combinatorics, stochastic processes, stochastic control and optimization, discrete event dynamic systems, algebra.
