Agner Krarup Erlang (ref. An Introduction to Queueing
Theory, by Kashyap and Chaudhry, 1988, p. 1) published
his first paper on the subject in 1909 (according to
Cooper, Introduction to Queueing Theory (Second
Edition), 1981). Erlang was an Danish engineer who
worked for the Copenhagen Telephone Exchange. A good
summary of the history of queueing theory up to 1961
can be found in Saaty's Elements of Queueing Theory,
1961, pp. 20-25.
