Queueing systems are studied with a last-come, first-served queueing discipline and batch arrivals generated by a finite number of non-exponential sources. A closed-form expression is derived for the steady-state queue length distribution. This expression has a scaled geometric form and is insensitive to the input distribution. Moreover, an algorithm for the recursive computation of the normalizing constant and the busy source distribution is presented. The results are of both practical and theoretical interest as an extension of the standard Poisson batch input case.

We consider a two-node Jackson network in which the buffer of node 1 is truncated. Our interest is in the limit of the tail decay rate of the queue-length distribution of node 2 when the buffer size of node 1 goes to infinity, provided that the stability condition of the unlimited network is satisfied. We show that there can be three different cases for the limit. This generalizes some recent results obtained for the tandem Jackson network. Special cases and some numerical examples are also presented.

We study a queueing system with a finite number of input sources. Jobs are individually generated by a source but wait to be served in batches, during which the input of that source is stopped. The service speed of a server depends on the mode of other sources and thus includes interdependencies. The input and service times are allowed to be generally distributed. A classical example is a machine repair system where the machines are subject to shocks causing cumulative damage. A product-form expression is obtained for the steady state joint queue length distribution and shown to be insensitive (i.e. to depend on only mean input and service times). The result is of both practical and theoretical interest as an extension of more standard batch service systems.

In this paper, we study Markov fluid queues where the net fluid rate to a single-buffer system varies with respect to the state of an underlying continuous-time Markov chain. We present a novel algorithmic approach to solve numerically for the steady-state solution of such queues. Using this approach, both infinite- and finite-buffer cases are studied. We show that the solution of the infinite-buffer case is reduced to the solution of a generalized spectral divide-and-conquer (SDC) problem applied on a certain matrix pencil. Moreover, this SDC problem does not require the individual computation of any eigenvalues and eigenvectors. Via the solution for the SDC problem, a matrix-exponential representation for the steady-state queue-length distribution is obtained. The finite-buffer case, on the other hand, requires a similar but different decomposition, the so-called additive decomposition (AD). Using the AD, we obtain a modified matrix-exponential representation for the steady-state queue-length distribution. The proposed approach for the finite-buffer case is shown not to have the numerical stability problems reported in the literature.

We consider a single-server queueing system at which customers arrive according to a Poisson process. The service times of the customers are independent and follow a Coxian distribution of order r. The system is subject to costs per unit time for holding a customer in the system. We give a closed-form expression for the average cost and the corresponding value function. The result can be used to derive nearly optimal policies in controlled queueing systems in which the service times are not necessarily Markovian, by performing a single step of policy iteration. We illustrate this in the model where a controller has to route to several single-server queues. Numerical experiments show that the improved policy has a close-to-optimal value.

A technique is developed for the analysis of the asymptotic behaviour in the long run of queueing systems with two waiting lines. The generating function of the time-dependent joint queue-length distribution is obtained with the aid of the theory of boundary value problems of the Riemann–Hilbert type and by introducing a conformal mapping of the unit disk onto a given domain. In the asymptotic analysis an extensive use is made of theorems on the boundary behaviour of such conformal mappings.

There is a growing interest in queueing systems with negative arrivals; i.e. where the arrival of a negative customer has the effect of deleting some customer in the queue. Recently, Harrison and Pitel (1996) investigated the queue length distribution of a single server queue of type M/G/1 with negative arrivals. In this paper we extend the analysis to the context of queueing systems with request repeated. We show that the limiting distribution of the system state can still be reduced to a Fredholm integral equation. We solve such an equation numerically by introducing an auxiliary ‘truncated’ system which can easily be evaluated with the help of a regenerative approach.
