The paper addresses monotonicity properties of the single server retrial queue with no waiting room and server subject to active breakdowns. The obtained results allow us to place in a prominent position the insensitive bounds for the stationary distribution of the embedded Markov chain related to the model in the study. Numerical illustrations are provided to support the results.

In this paper we study a multi-channel queueing model of type with N waiting places and a non-recurrent input flow dependent on queue length at the time of each arrival. The queue length is treated as a basic process. We first determine explicitly the limit distribution of the embedded Markov chain. Then, by introducing an auxiliary Markov process, we find a simple relationship between the limiting distribution of the Markov chain and the limiting distribution of the original process with continuous time parameter. Here we simultaneously combine two methods: solving the corresponding Kolmogorov system of the differential equations, and using an approach based on the theory of semi-regenerative processes. Among various applications of multi-channel queues with state-dependent input stream, we consider a closed single-server system with reserve replacement and state-dependent service, which turns out to be dual (in a certain sense) in relation to our model; an optimization problem is also solved, and an interpretation by means of tandem systems is discussed.

In this article we analyze the M=G=1 retrial queue with two-way communication and n types of outgoing calls from a stochastic comparison viewpoint. The main idea is that given a complex Markov chain that cannot be analyzed numerically, we propose to bound it by a new Markov chain, which is easier to solve by using a stochastic comparison approach. Particularly, we study the monotonicity of the transition operator of the embedded Markov chain relative to the stochastic and convex orderings. Bounds are also obtained for the stationary distribution of the embedded Markov chain at departure epochs. Additionally, the performance measures of the considered system can be estimated by those of an M=M=1 retrial queue with two-way communication and n types of outgoing calls when the service time distribution is NBUE (respectively, NWUE). Finally, we test numerically the accuracy of the proposed bounds.

We are concerned with a burst arrival single-server queue, where arrivals of cells in a burst are synchronized with a constant service time. The main concern is with the loss probability of cells for the queue with a finite buffer. We analyze an embedded Markov chain at departure instants of cells and get a kind of lumpability for its state space. Based on these results, this paper proposes a computation algorithm for its stationary distribution and the loss probability. Closed formulas are obtained for the first two moments of the numbers of cells and active bursts when the buffer size is infinite.

Disaster arrival into a queueing system causes all customers to leave the system instantaneously. We present a numerically stable algorithm for calculating the stationary state distribution of an embedded Markov chain for the BMAP/SM/1 queue with a MAP input of disasters.

Expressions are derived for the expected waiting times for the customers of two types who arrive in batches (in a compound Poisson fashion) at a single-server queueing station with no waiting room. Those who cannot get served immediately keep returning to the system after random exponential amounts of time until they get served. The result is shown to agree with similar results for three special cases studied in the literature.

The loss probabilities of customers in the Mx/GI/1/k, GI/Mx/l/k and their related queues such as server vacation models are compared with respect to the convex order of several characteristics, for example, batch size, of the arrival or service process. In the proof, we give a characterization of a truncation expression for a stationary distribution of a finite Markov chain, which is interesting in itself.

In this paper the authors introduce systems in which customers are served by one active server and a group of passive servers. The calculation of response time for such systems is rendered by analyzing a special kind of queueing system in a synchronized random environment. For an embedded Markov chain, sufficient conditions for the existence of a stationary distribution are proved. A formula for the corresponding vector generating function is obtained. It is a matrix analog of the Pollaczek-Khinchin formula and is simultaneously a matrix functional equation. A method for solving this equation is proposed.
