A queueing model of considerable interest in computer engineering is the processor-sharing model in which the server shares its fixed capacity equally among all units present in the system. Here, we derive the mean and the variance of the equilibrium sojourn time, and deduce that the variance of the sojourn time is larger for the processor-sharing model than for the corresponding FCFS model.

We consider single-server queues with exponentially distributed service times, in which the arrival process is governed by a semi-Markov process (SMP). Two service disciplines, processor sharing (PS) and random service (RS), are investigated. We note that the sojourn time distribution of a type-lcustomer who, upon his arrival, meetskcustomers already present in the SMP/M/1/PS queue is identical to the waiting time distribution of a type-lcustomer who, upon his arrival, meetsk+1 customers already present in the SMP/M/1/RS queue. Two sets of system equations, one for the joint transform of the sojourn time and queue size distributions in the SMP/M/1/PS queue, and the other for the joint transform of the waiting time and queue size distributions in the SMP/M/1/RS queue, are derived. Using these equations, the mean sojourn time in the SMP/M/1/PS queue and the mean waiting time in the SMP/M/1/RS queue are obtained. We also consider a special case of the SMP in which the interarrival time distribution is determined only by the type of the customer who has most recently arrived. Numerical examples are also presented.

By an argument which involves matching sample paths, some useful equations for the probability distribution of the fundamental period in the MAP/G/1 queue are derived with less calculational effort than in earlier proofs. It is further shown that analogous equations hold for the MAP/SM/1 queueing model. These results are then used to derive explicit formulas for the mean vectors of the number served during and the duration of the fundamental period.

We consider the M/M/1 queue with disasters and impatient customers. Disasters only occur when the main server being busy, it not only removes out all present customers from the system, but also breaks the main server down. When the main server is down, it is sent for repair. The substitute server serves the customers at a slow rate(working breakdown service) until the main server is repaired. The customers become impatient due to the working breakdown. The system size distribution is derived. We also obtain the mean queue length of the model and mean sojourn time of a tagged customer. Finally, some performance measures and numerical examples are presented.

We establish a conservation law for G/G/1 queues with any work-conserving service discipline using the equilibrium equations, also called the basic equations. We use this conservation law to prove an extremal property of the first-come firstserved (FCFS) service discipline: among all service disciplines that are work-conserving and independent of remaining service requirements for individual customers, the FCFS service discipline minimizes [maximizes] the mean sojourn time in a G/G/1 queue with independent (but not necessarily identical) service times with a common mean and new better [worse] than used (NBUE[NWUE]) distributions. This extends recent results of Halfin and Whitt (1990), Righter et al. (1990) and Yamazaki and Sakasegawa (1987a,b). In addition we use the conservation law to obtain an approximation for the mean queue length in a GI/GI/1 queue under the processor-sharing service discipline with finite degree of multiplicity, called LiPS discipline. Several numerical examples are presented which support the practical usefulness of the proposed approximation.
