In this paper we study the asymptotic behavior of the tail of the stationary backlog distribution in a single server queue with constant service capacity c, fed by the so-called M/G/∞ input process or Cox input process. Asymptotic lower bounds are obtained for any distribution G and asymptotic upper bounds are derived when G is a subexponential distribution. We find the bounds to be tight in some instances, e.g. when G corresponds to either the Pareto or lognormal distribution and c − ρ < 1, where ρ is the arrival rate at the buffer.

In this paper a problem arising in queueing and dam theory is studied. We shall consider a G/G*/1 queueing model, i.e., a G/G/1 queueing model of which the service process is a separable centered process with stationary independent increments. This is a generalisation of the well-known G/G/1 model with constant service rate. Several results concerning the amount of work done by the server, the busy cycles etc., are derived, mainly using the well-known method of Pollaczek. Emphasis is laid on the similarities and dissimilarities between the results of the ‘classical’ G/G/1 model and the G/G*/1 model.

Consider a single-server queue with zero buffer. The arrival process is a three-level Markov modulated Poisson process with an arbitrary transition matrix. The time the system remains at level i (i = 1, 2, 3) is exponentially distributed with rate cα i. The arrival rate at level i is λ i and the service time is exponentially distributed with rate μ i. In this paper we first derive an explicit formula for the loss probability and then prove that it is decreasing in the parameter c. This proves a conjecture of Ross and Rolski's for a single-server queue with zero buffer.

This paper develops moment formulas for asymptotic workload and waiting time in a single-server queue with periodic Poisson input and general service distribution. These formulas involve the corresponding moments of waiting-time (workload) for the M/G/1 system with the same average arrival rate and service distribution. In certain cases, all the terms in the formulas can be computed exactly, including moments of workload at each ‘time of day.' The approach makes use of an asymptotic version of the Takács [12] integro-differential equation, together with representation results of Harrison and Lemoine [3] and Lemoine [6].

A Markov decision chain with denumerable state space incurs two types of costs — for example, an operating cost and a holding cost. The objective is to minimize the expected average operating cost, subject to a constraint on the expected average holding cost. We prove the existence of an optimal constrained randomized stationary policy, for which the two stationary policies differ on at most one state. The examples treated are a packet communication system with reject option and a single-server queue with service rate control.

This study has examined the performance of University transport bus shuttle based on utilization using a Single-server queue system which occur if arrival and service rate is Poisson distributed (single queue) (M/M/1) queue. In the methodology, Single-server queue system was modelled based on Poisson Process with the introduction of Laplace Transform. It is concluded that the performance of University transport bus shuttle is 96.6 percent which indicates a very good performance such that the supply of shuttle bus in FUTA is capable of meeting the demand.

The time the system remains at level i (i = 1, 2, 3) is exponentially distributed with rate cα i . The arrival rate at level i is λ i and the service time is exponentially distributed with rate μ i . In this paper we first derive an explicit formula for the loss probability and then prove that it is decreasing in the parameter c. This proves a conjecture of Ross and Rolski's for a single-server queue with zero buffer.
