Selected papers from the Specialist Seminar of the Adelaide International Teletraffic Congress are presented in this book. Together they give an excellent sample of the work being done around the world to define and meet the new challenges in Teletraffic theory and practice. Although many questions are answered here, the papers pose many more problems which are still to be solved. Many papers present methods for solving problems that will remain difficult even as computing speed increases exponentially. The methods used include heuristic and AI approaches, approximations, simplifications, new approaches to numerical analysis and simulation, and some new techniques borrowed from other disciplines. While some problems are hard to solve because of complexity, others are difficult because of uncertainty. Some forms of uncertainty may be quantified and dealt with by using probability theory - many examples may be found in this volume. Further papers show that stationary stochastic processes are now being challenged as other models are also tried.van Dijk, N.
