In this paper the concavity property for the distribution of a geometric random sum (geometric compound) X, + · ·· + XN is established under the assumption that Xi are i.i.d. and have a DFR distribution. From this and the fact that the actual waiting time in GI/G/1 queues can be written as a geometric random sum, the concavity of the waiting-time distribution in GI/G/1 queues with a DFR service-time distribution is derived. The DFR property of the idle-period distribution in specialized GI/G/1 queues is also mentioned.

The Law

Keilson and Servi introduced in [5] a variation of a GI/G/1 queue with vacation, in which at the end of a service time, either the server is not idle, and he starts serving the first customer in the queue with probability p, or goes on vacation with probability 1 – p, or he is idle, and he takes a vacation. At the end of a vacation, either customers are present, and the server starts serving the first customer, or he is idle, and he takes a vacation. The case p = 1, called the GI/G/1/V queue, was studied analytically by Gelenbe and Iasnogorodski [3] (see also [4]) and then by Doshi [1] and Fricker [2] who obtained stochastic decomposition results on the waiting-time of the nth customer extending the law decomposition result of [3]. Keilson and Servi [5] give a more complete analytic method of treating both the GI/G/1/V model and the Bernoulli vacation model: instead of the waiting time, they use a bivariate process at the service and vacation initiation epochs and the waiting-time distribution is computed as a conditional distribution of the above. In this note the law decomposition result is obtained from a reduction to the GI/G/1/V model with a modified service-time distribution just using the waiting time, with simple path arguments so that by [1] and [2] stochastic decomposition results are valid, which extend the result of [5].

Poisson Arrivals

This paper considers a single-server queue with Poisson arrivals and multiple customer feedbacks. If the first service attempt of a newly arriving customer is not successful, he returns to the end of the queue for another service attempt, with a different service time distribution. He keeps trying in this manner (as an ‘old' customer) until his service is successful. The server operates according to the ‘gated vacation' strategy; when it returns from a vacation to find K (new and old) customers, it renders a single service attempt to each of them and takes another vacation, etc. We study the joint queue length process of new and old customers, as well as the waiting time distribution of customers. Some extensions are also discussed.

Effective Service

In [1] the authors dealt with a particular queueing system in which arrivals occurred in a Poisson stream and the probability differential of a service completion was μσn when the queue contained n customers. Much of the theory could not be carried out further analytically for a general σn, which is a purely n-dependent quantity. To carry the analysis further to the extent of finding the “effective” service time and the waiting time distribution when σn is a linear function of n, (which is considered to be rather general and sufficient for practical purposes), constitutes the subject matter of this paper.

Uniformly Bounded

A generalized queueing system with (N + 2) types of triplets (delay, service time, probability of joining the queue) and with uniformly bounded sojourn times is considered. An expression for the generating function of the Laplace-Stieltjes transforms of the waiting time distributions is derived analytically, in a case where some of the random variables defining the model have a rational Laplace-Stieltjes transform.The standard Kl/Km/1 queueing system with uniformly bounded sojourn times is considered in particular.
