Yeah they are a newer development. Stochastic network calculus more so. Network calculus is older, it even has a wikipedia page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_calculus A key idea is convolution but in the max-plus algebra and martingale large deviations. &gt; For network queuing, really I was suggesting using that as a paradigm to formulate an analysis; Indeed.
