Abstract
In this paper some new results are presented for the statistical analysis of queues. Special emphasis is placed on the estimation of input and service parameters and/or distributions in various queueing contexts. A fair amount of background material is quoted from the literature in order to provide an appropriate setting for the discussion of the new results.
