This paper studies theGI/G/1 queueing system assuming that customers have service times depending on the queue size and also that they are served in accordance with the preemptive-resume last-come–first-served queue discipline. Expressions are given for the limiting distribution of the queue size and the remaining durations of the corresponding services, when the system is considered at arrival epochs, at departure epochs and continuously in time. Also these results are applied to some particular cases of the above queueing system.

This paper considers a single-server queueing system with Markov-dependent interarrival times, with special reference to the serial correlation coefficient of the arrival process. The queue size and waiting-time processes are investigated. Both transient and limiting results are given.

In this paper, we consider a double-ended queueing system which is a passenger-taxi service system. In our model, we also consider the dynamic taxi control policy which means that the manager adjusts the arrival rate of taxis according to the taxi stand congestion. Under three different information levels, we study the equilibrium strategies as well as socially optimal strategies for arriving passengers by a reward-cost structure. Furthermore, we present several numerical experiments to analyze the relationship between the equilibrium and socially optimal strategies and demonstrate the effect of different information levels as well as several parameters on social benefit.

A queueing system with a single server is considered. There are a finite number of types of customers, and the types of successive arrivals form a Markov chain. Further, the nth interarrival time has a distribution function which may depend on the types of the nth and the n–1th arrivals. The queue size, waiting time, and busy period processes are investigated. Both transient and limiting results are given.

This paper presents a simple and computationally tractable method which recursively computes the stationary probabilities of the queue size in an M/G/1 queueing system with variable service rate. For each service two possible service types are available and the service rule is characterized by two switch-over levels. The computational approach discussed in this paper can be applied to a variety of queueing problems.

This paper studies a controlled queueing system in which the decisionmaker may change servers according to rules which depend only on the queue length. It is proved that for a given control policy a properly normalised sequence of these controlled queue length processes converges weakly to a controlled diffusion process as the queueing systems approach a state of heavy traffic.

The paper studies a controllable multi-server heterogeneous queueing system where servers operate at different service rates without preemption, i.e., the service times are uninterrupted. The optimal control policy allocates the customers between the servers in such a way that the mean number of customers in the system reaches its minimal value. The Markov decision model and the policy-iteration algorithm are used to calculate the optimal allocation policy and corresponding mean performance characteristics. The optimal policy, when neglecting the weak influence of slow servers, is of threshold type defined as a sequence of threshold levels which specifies the queue lengths for the usage of any slower server. To avoid time-consuming calculations for systems with a large number of servers, we focus here on a heuristic evaluation of the optimal thresholds and compare this solution with the real values. We develop also the simple lower and upper bound methods based on approximation by an equivalent heterogeneous queueing system with a preemption to measure the mean number of customers in the system operating under the optimal policy. Finally, the simulation technique is used to provide sensitivity analysis of the heuristic solution to changes in the form of inter-arrival and service time distributions.
