Queue discipline definition
/What is Queue Discipline?
Queue discipline is the set of rules under which an organization processes incoming items. For example, a bank has rules for the order in which the next customer is handled, while a manufacturer has rules for the order in which it processes production orders. Algorithms may be used that optimize queue discipline. Some of the more common rules are:
First come, first served
Last come, first served
Serve in random order
Serve by priority
A business that does not use queue discipline is likely to have significantly lower process efficiency than the competition.
