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.

The author studies an M/G/1 queueing system with multiple vacations. The server is turned off in accordance with the K-limited discipline, and is turned on in accordance with the T-N-hybrid policy. This is to say that the server will begin a vacation from the system if either the queue is empty orKcustomers were served during a busy period. The server idles until it finds at leastNwaiting units upon return from a vacation.Formulas for the distribution generating function and some characteristics of the queueing process are derived. An optimization problem is discussed.
