In this paper we study the conditional limiting behaviour for the virtual waiting time process for the queue M/D/1. We describe the family of conditional invariant distributions which are continuous and parametrized by the eigenvalues λ ∊ (0, λc], as it happens for diffusions. In this case, there is a periodic dependence of the limiting conditional distributions on the initial point and the minimal conditional invariant distribution is a mixture, according to an exponential law, of the limiting conditional distributions.

An analytic approach to the diffusion approximation in queueing due to Burman (1979) is applied to the M(t)/G/1/∞ queueing system with periodic Poisson arrivals. We show that under heavy traffic the virtual waiting time process can be approximated by a certain Wiener process with reflecting barrier at 0.

This paper demonstrates that, when in heavy traffic, the quasi-stationary distribution of the virtual waiting time process of both the M/G/1 and GI/M/1 queues as well as the quasi-stationary distribution of the waiting times {Wn } of the M/G/1 queue can be approximated by the same gamma distribution. What characterises this approximating gamma distribution are the first two moments of the service time and inter-arrival time distributions only. A similar approximating behaviour is demonstrated for the queue size process.

Let X(t) be the virtual waiting-time process of a stable M/G/1 queue. Let R(t) be the covariance function of the stationary process X(t), B(t) the busy-period distribution of X(t); and let E(t) = P{X(t) = 0|X(0) = 0}. For X(t) some heavy-traffic results are given, among which are limiting expressions for R(t) and its derivatives and for B(t) and E(t). These results are used to find the covariance function of stationary Brownian motion on [0, ∞).

The virtual waiting time process, W(t), in the M/G/1 queue is investigated under the condition that the initial busy period terminates but has not done so by time n ≥ t. It is demonstrated that, as n → ∞, W(t), suitably scaled and normed, converges to the unsigned Brownian excursion process or a modification of that process depending whether ρ ≠ 1 or ρ = 1, where ρ is the traffic intensity.

We consider a stochastic process which increases and decreases by simple jumps as well as smoothly. The rate of smooth increase and decrease with time is a function of the state of the process. The process is not constant in time except when in the zero state. For such processes a relation is derived between the expected number of true crossings (as opposed to skippings by which we mean vertical crossings due to jumps) of a level x, say, and the time dependent distribution of the process. This result is applied to the virtual waiting time process of the GI/G/1 queue, where it is of particular interest when the zero level is considered, as the underlying crossing process is then a renewal process. It leads to a new derivation of the busy period distribution for this system. This serves as an example for the last brief section, where an indication is given as to how this method may be applied to the GI/G/s queue. Naturally, the present method is most powerful when the original process is a Markov process, so that renewal processes are imbedded at all levels. For an application to the M/G/1 queue, see Roes [3].
