This paper describes two one-for-one ordering (S − 1, S) inventory models in which the time required for order replenishment is state-dependent. The demand is assumed to follow a compound Poisson distribution, and that portion of the leadtime corresponding to the actual filling of orders is assumed to depend on the number of outstanding orders. Since the orders placed are assumed to go into a single-server queue, queuing results are used to obtain the expected inventory cost as a function of S in order to obtain an optimal value of S.

We consider the loss probability of a customer in a single-server queue with finite buffer and partial rejection and show that it can be identified with the tail distribution of the cycle maximum of the associated infinite-buffer queue. This equivalence is shown to hold for the GI/G/1 queue and for dams with state-dependent release rates. To prove this equivalence, we use a duality for stochastically monotone recursions, developed by Asmussen and Sigman (1996). As an application, we obtain several exact and asymptotic results for the loss probability and extend Takács' formula for the cycle maximum in the M/G/1 queue to dams with variable release rate.

This paper studies theGI/G/1 queueing system assuming that customers have service times depending on the queue size and also that they are served in accordance with the preemptive-resume last-come–first-served queue discipline. Expressions are given for the limiting distribution of the queue size and the remaining durations of the corresponding services, when the system is considered at arrival epochs, at departure epochs and continuously in time. Also these results are applied to some particular cases of the above queueing system.
