<p style='text-indent:20px;'>We consider a discrete-time infinite buffer renewal input queue with multiple vacations and synchronized abandonment. Waiting customers get impatient during the server's vacation and decide whether to take service or abandon simultaneously at the vacation completion instants. Using the supplementary variable technique and difference operator method, we obtain an explicit expression to find the steady-state system-length distributions at pre-arrival, random, and outside observer's observation epochs. We provide the stochastic decomposition structure for the number of customers and discuss the various performance measures. With the help of numerical experiments, we show that the method formulated in this work is analytically elegant and computationally tractable. The results are appropriate for light-tailed inter-arrival distributions and can also be leveraged to find heavy-tailed inter-arrival distributions.</p>

This paper centers on a discrete-time retrial queue where the server experiences breakdowns and repairs when arriving customers may opt to follow a discipline of a last-come, first-served (LCFS)-type or to join the orbit. We focused on the extensive analysis of the system, and we obtained the stationary distributions of the number of customers in the orbit and in the system by applying the generation function (GF). We provide the stochastic decomposition law and the application bounds for the proximity between the steady-state distributions for the queueing system under consideration and its corresponding standard system. We developed recursive formulae aimed at the calculation of the steady-state of the orbit and the system. We proved that our discrete-time system approximates M/G/1 with breakdowns and repairs. We analyzed the busy period of an auxiliary system, the objective of which was to study the customer’s delay. The stationary distribution of a customer’s sojourn in the orbit and in the system was the object of a thorough and complete study. Finally, we provide numerical examples that outline the effect of the parameters on several performance characteristics and a conclusions section resuming the main research contributions of the paper.

We analyze a discrete-timeGeo/G/1 retrial queue with two different types of vacations and general retrial times. Two different types of vacation policies are investigated in this model, one of which is nonexhaustive urgent vacation during serving and the other is normal exhaustive vacation. For this model, we give the steady-state analysis for the considered queueing system. Firstly, we obtain the generating functions of the number of customers in our model. Then, we obtain the closed-form expressions of some performance measures and also give a stochastic decomposition result for the system size. Moreover, the relationship between this discrete-time model and the corresponding continuous-time model is also investigated. Finally, some numerical results are provided to illustrate the effect of nonexhaustive urgent vacation on some performance characteristics of the system.

<p style='text-indent:20px;'>This paper studies the equilibrium balking strategies of impatient customers in a discrete-time multi-server renewal input queue with identical servers. Arriving customers are unaware of the number of customers in the queue before making a decision whether to join or balk the queue. We model the decision-making process as a non-cooperative symmetric game and derive the Nash equilibrium mixed strategy and optimal social strategies. The stationary system-length distributions at different observation epochs under the equilibrium structure are obtained using the roots method. Finally, some numerical examples are presented to show the effect of the information level together with system parameters on the equilibrium and social behavior of impatient customers.</p>

In this paper we study the M/M/1 queueing model with retrial on network. We derive the steady state probability of customers in the network, the average number of customers in the all the three nodes in the system, the queue length, system length using little’s formula. The particular case is derived (no retrial). The numerical examples are given to test the correctness of the model.

Abstract This paper considers a discrete-time Geo/G/1 queue in a multi-phase service environment, where the system is subject to disastrous breakdowns, causing all present customers to leave the system simultaneously. At a failure epoch, the server abandons the service and the system undergoes a repair period. After the system is repaired, it jumps to operative phase i with probability qi, i = 1, 2 ⋯, n. Using the supplementary variable technique, we obtain the distribution for the stationary queue length at the arbitrary epoch, which are then used for the computation of other performance measures. In addition, we derive the expected length of a cycle time, the generating function of the sojourn time of an arbitrary customer, and the generating function of the server’s working time in a cycle. We also give the relationship between the discrete-time queueing system to its continuous-time counterpart. Finally, some examples and numerical results are presented.

This paper analyzes a discrete-time infinite-buffer Geo/Geo/2 queue, in which the number of servers can be adjusted depending on the number of customers in the system one at a time at arrival or at service completion epoch. Analytical closed-form solutions of the infinite-buffer Geo/Geo/2 queueing system operating under the triadic (0, Q N, M) policy are derived. The total expected cost function is developed to obtain the optimal operating (0, Q N, M) policy and the optimal service rate at minimum cost using direct search method. Some performance measures and sensitivity analysis have been presented.

This article proposes and studies a problem of preview control for a type of discrete-time interconnected systems. First, adopting the technique of decentralized control, isolated subsystems are constructed by splitting the correlations between the systems. Utilizing the difference operator to the system equations and error vectors, error systems are built. Then, the preview controller is designed for the error system of each isolated subsystem. The controllers of error systems of isolated subsystems are aggregated as a controller of the interconnected system. Finally, by employing Lyapunov function method and the properties of non-singular M-matrix, the guarantee conditions for the existence of preview controllers for interconnected systems are given. The numerical simulation shows that the theoretical results are effective.
