We develop a conservation law for a multi-class GI/GI/1 queue operating under a general work-conserving scheduling discipline. For single-class single-server queues, conservation laws have been obtained for both nonanticipating and anticipating disciplines with general service time distributions. For multi-class single-server queues, conservation laws have been obtained for (i) nonanticipating disciplines with exponential service time distributions and (ii) nonpreemptive nonanticipating disciplines with general service time distributions. The unifying conservation law we develop generalizes already existing conservation laws. In addition, it covers popular nonanticipating multi-class time-sharing disciplines such as discriminatory processor sharing (DPS) and generalized processor sharing (GPS) with general service time distributions. As an application, we show that the unifying conservation law can be used to compare the expected unconditional response time under two scheduling disciplines.

The attained waiting time of customers in service of the G/G/1 queue is compared for various work-conserving service disciplines. It is proved that the attained waiting time distribution is minimized (maximized) in convex order when the discipline is FCFS (PR-LCFS). We apply the result to characterize finiteness of moments of the attained waiting time in the GI/GI/1 queue with an arbitrary work-conserving service discipline. In this discussion, some interesting relationships are obtained for a PR-LCFS queue.
