I was studying queueing theory for my class and noticed that we are now able to either solve with certainity most queiening problems or simulate them.

is queueing a dead research area?

I read this paper http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/030504839190017N written in 1990 which states that queueing is still hot but i was wondering whether people still consider queueing to be dead.

Sure it is. And every theorem in mathematics has already been proved long ago, as your local politician will tell you. – Did Mar 5 at 8:31
