To anyone who finds these models interesting and wants to learn a lot more - I’d highly recommend Mor Harchol-Balter’s textbook: https://www.amazon.com/Performance-Modeling-Design-Computer-... (She is currently a professor at Carnegie Mellon).

I warmly recommend Harchol-Balter: https://www.amazon.com/Performance-Modeling-Design-Computer-... It is an eminintly practical book which is written in terms of computers, goes beyond the basic M/M/1 but without being overbearing.
