ABSTRACT
A single-channel retrial queuing system with the input flow of demands of different types is considered. The sojourn time in the orbit of a demand of any type is exponentially distributed. An embedded Markov chain is set up. The explicit and approximate formulas for the transition probabilities of the chain are derived and are used to determine the steady-state probabilities.

We introduce a new approach to modelling queueing systems where the priority or the routing of customers depends on the time the first customer has waited in the queue. This past waiting time of the first customer in line, WFIL, is used as the primary variable for our approach. A Markov chain is...

This paper analyzes several aspects of the Markov-modulated infinite-server queue. In the system considered (i) particles arrive according to a Poisson process with rate $$\lambda _i$$ when an external Markov process ('background process') is in state $$i$$ , (ii) service times are drawn from a...

The average delay for the GI/G/1 queue is often approximated as a function of the first two moments of interarrival and service times. For highly irregular arrivals, however, it varies widely among queues with the same first two moments, even in moderately heavy traffic. Empirically, it...

In this paper the steady-state queue size behavior of single-server queues with bulk-arrival and batch-service, referred to as bulk queues, is approximated by a diffusion process using the instantaneous return approach. Diffusion approximation solutions for various queue size statistics are...

The diffusion approximation is proved for a class of multiclass queueing networks under FIFO service disciplines. In addition to the usual assumptions for a heavy traffic limit theorem, a key condition that characterizes this class is that a J x J matrix G, known as the workload contents matrix,...

We consider a queueing system with two types of servers and two types of customers. General-use servers can provide service to either customer type while limited-use servers can be used only for one of the two. Though the apparent Markovian state space of this system is five-dimensional, we show...
