• I am mainly interested in loss model which is a special type of queueing model with zero buffer or without waiting space for capacity and resource planning and management in health care, manufacturing, telecommunication and other communication networks where overflow may also arise. I have also some interest in approximations in queueing theory. Besides queueing models I am also interested in the application of Markov process, linear and non-linear birth-death chain, Brownian motion, etc. for solving real life problems.
