We consider a queueing system where arriving customers join the queue at some random position. This constitutes an impolite arrival discipline because customers do not necessarily go to the end of the line upon arrival. Although mean performance measures like the average waiting time and average number of customers in the queue are the same for all such disciplines, we show that the variance of the waiting time increases as the arrival discipline becomes more impolite, in the sense that a customer is more likely to choose a position closer to the server. For the M/G/1 model, we also provide an iterative procedure for computing the moments of the waiting time distribution. Explicit computational formulas are derived for an interesting special model where a customer joins the queue either at the head or at the end of the line.

We consider a two-heterogeneous-server queueing system with Bernoulli vacation in which customers arrive according to a Markovian arrival process (MAP). Servers returning from vacation immediately take another vacation if no customer is waiting. Using matrix-geometric method, the steady-state probability of the number of customers in the system is investigated. Some important performance measures are obtained. The waiting time distribution and the mean waiting time are also discussed. Finally, some numerical illustrations are provided.

We consider an Mx /G/1 queueing system with N-policy and multiple vacations. As soon as the system empties, the server leaves for a vacation of random length V. When he returns, if the queue length is greater than or equal to a predetermined value N(threshold), the server immediately begins to serve the customers. If he finds less than N customers, he leaves for another vacation and so on until he finally finds at least N customers. We obtain the system size distribution and show that the system size decomposes into three random variables one of which is the system size of ordinary Mx /G/1 queue. The interpretation of the other random variables will be provided. We also derive the queue waiting time distribution and other performance measures. Finally we derive a condition under which the optimal stationary operating policy is achieved under a linear cost structure.

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.

This paper brings out relations among the moments of various orders of the waiting time of the1st customer and a randomly selected customer of an arrival group for bulk arrivals queueing models, and as well as moments of the waiting time (in queue) forM/G/1queueing system. A numerical study of these relations has been developed in order to find the(β1,β2)measures of waiting time distribution in a comutable form. On the basis of these measures one can look into the nature of waiting time distribution of bulk arrival queues and the single serverM/G/1queue.

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.

SummaryThe paper considers the queueing system GI/G/1 with a type of customer impatience, namely, that the total queueing-time is uniformly limited. Using Lindiley's approach [10], an integral equation for the limiting waiting- time distribution is derived, and this is solved explicitly for M/G/1 using an expansion of the Pollaczek-Khintchine formula. It is also solved, in principle for Ej/G/l, and explicitly for Ej/Ek/l. A duality noted between GIA(x)/GB(x)/l and GIB(x)/GA(x)/l relates solutions for GI/Ek/l to Ek/G/l. Finally the equation for the busy period in GI/G/l is derived and related to the no-customer-loss distribution and dual distributions.
