This is a good introduction to the terminology and symbology used to describe queues, and the KPIs that it highlights are useful.

I'm left wishing that the writeup included some more applications of queuing theory. Are there any unexpected or counterintuitive results that all the terminology makes it easier to understand or express? Otherwise, I'm not too motivated to learn all these Greek letters :)
