Random arrivals (requests for service), probability distributions defining queueing processes (distributions of service times and acceptable waiting times), and structure parameters (customer priorities, parameters that delimit acceptable queues, parameters that define paths of customers, etc.) are characteristic com ponents of queueing models.

Recursion theory is gone into a little more deeply, including the s-m-n theorem, the recursion theorem, and Rice's Theorem. (3) In Chapter 2, Quantification Theory, Henkin's proof of the completeness theorem has been postponed until the reader has gained more experience in proof techniques.

To be sure there is a big gap between learning the Banach-Steinhaus theorem, for example, and applying it to a real problem. It is a natural objective, because integration theory and functional analysis to a great extent developed in response to the problems of Fourier series!
