In [4], the limiting behaviour of a stochastic system with two types of input was investigated by reducing the problem to the solution of an integral equation. In this note we use the same approach to study the equilibrium waiting time problem for the general single server queue with preemptive service interruptions. (For a comprehensive account of the existing literature on queues with service interruptions we refer to [2] and [3].)

This paper studies a discrete-time single-server queue with two independent inputs and service interruptions. One of the inputs to the queue is an independent and identically distributed process. The other is a much more general process and it is not required to be Markov nor is it required to be stationary. The service interruption process is also general and it is not required to be Markov or to be stationary. This paper shows that a stochastic decomposition property for the virtual waiting-time process holds in the discrete-time single-server queue with service interruptions. To the best of the author's knowledge, no stochastic decomposition results for virtual waiting-time processes in non-work-conserving queues, such as queues with service interruptions, have been obtained before and only work-conserving queues have been studied in the literature.

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].

This paper considers a single-server queue with Poisson arrivals and multiple customer feedbacks. If the first service attempt of a newly arriving customer is not successful, he returns to the end of the queue for another service attempt, with a different service time distribution. He keeps trying in this manner (as an ‘old' customer) until his service is successful. The server operates according to the ‘gated vacation' strategy; when it returns from a vacation to find K (new and old) customers, it renders a single service attempt to each of them and takes another vacation, etc. We study the joint queue length process of new and old customers, as well as the waiting time distribution of customers. Some extensions are also discussed.

This paper deals with the single-server queue with batch arrivals. We show that under suitable conditions the waiting-time distribution of an individual customer has an asymptotically exponential expansion. Computationally useful characterizations of the amplitude factor and the decay parameter are given for the practically important case in which the interarrival time and the service time have phase-type distributions.

This paper is a continuation of Daley (1969), referred to as (I), whose notation and numbering is continued here. We shall indicate various approaches to the study of the total waiting time in a busy period2 of a stable single-server queue with a Poisson arrival process at rate λ, and service times independently distributed with common distribution function (d.f.) B(·). Let X'i denote3 the total waiting time in a busy period which starts at an epoch when there are i (≧ 1) customers in the system (to be precise, the service of one customer is just starting and the remaining i − 1 customers are waiting for service). We shall find the first two moments of X'i, prove its asymptotic normality for i → ∞ when B(·) has finite second moment, and exhibit the Laplace-Stieltjes transform of X'i in M/M/1 as the ratio of two Bessel functions.

Various elegant properties have been found for the waiting time distribution G for the queue GI/G/1 in statistical equilibrium, such as infinite divisibility ((1), p. 282) and that of having an exponential tail ((11), (2), p. 411, (1), p. 324). Here we derive another property which holds quite generally, provided the traffic intensity ρ < 1, and which is extremely simple, fitting in with the above results as well as yielding some useful properties in the form of upper and lower stochastic bounds for G which augment the bounds obtained by Kingman (5), (6), (8) and by Ross (10).
