This paper deals with a single-server discrete-time Geo/G/1 queueing model with Bernoulli feedback and N-policy where the server leaves for modified multiple vacations once the system becomes empty. Applying the law of probability decomposition, the renewal theory and the probability generating function technique, we explicitly derive the transient queue length distribution as well as the recursive expressions of the steady-state queue length distribution. Especially, some corresponding results under special cases are directly obtained. Furthermore, some numerical results are provided for illustrative purposes. Finally, a cost optimization problem is numerically analyzed under a given cost structure.

Fixed-cycle traffic light queues have been investigated by probabilistic methods by many authors. Beckmann, McGuire and Winsten (1956) considered a discrete time queueing model with binomial arrivals and regular departure headways and derived a relation between the stationary mean delay per vehicle and the stationary mean queue-length at the beginning of a red period of the traffic light. Haight (1959) and Buckley and Wheeler (1964) considered models with Poisson arrivals and regular departure headways and investigated certain properties of the queue-length. Newell (1960) dealt with the model proposed by the first authors and obtained the probability generating function of the stationary queue-length distribution. Darroch (1964) discussed a more general discrete time model with stationary, independent arrivals and regular departure headways and derived a necessary and sufficient condition for the stationary queue-length distribution to exist and obtained its probability generating function. The above two authors, Little (1961), Miller (1963), Newell (1965), McNeil (1968), Siskind (1970) and others gave approximate expressions for the stationary mean delay per vehicle for fixed-cycle traffic light queues of various types. All of the authors mentioned above dealt with the queue-length.

AbstractWe treat a single-server vacation queue with queue-length dependent vacation schedules. This subsumes the single-server vacation queue with exhaustive service discipline and the vacation queue with Bernoulli schedule as special cases. The lengths of vacation times depend on the number of customers in the system at the beginning of a vacation. The arrival process is a batch-Markovian arrival process (BMAP). We derive the queue-length distribution at departure epochs. By using a semi-Markov process technique, we obtain the Laplace-Stieltjes transform of the transient queue-length distribution at an arbitrary time point and its limiting distribution

In the previous work, the authors have considered a discrete-time queueing system and they have established that, under some assumptions, the stationary queue length distribution for the system with capacity K1 is completely expressed in terms of the stationary distribution for the system with capacity K0 (>K1). In this paper, we study a sample-path version of this problem in more general setting, where neither stationarity nor ergodicity is assumed. We establish that, under some assumptions, the empirical queue length distribution (along through a sample path) for the system with capacity K1 is completely expressed only in terms of the quantities concerning the corresponding system with capacity K0 (>K1). Further, we consider a probabilistic setting where the assumptions are satisfied with probability one, and under the probabilistic setting, we obtain a stochastic version of our main result. The stochastic version is considered as a generalization of the author's previous result, because the probabilistic assumptions are less restrictive.

A discrete-timeGeo/G/1queue with vacations in random environment is analyzed. Using the method of supplementary variable, we give the probability generating function (PGF) of the stationary queue length distribution at arbitrary epoch. The PGF of the stationary sojourn time distribution is also derived. And we present the various performance measures such as mean number of customers in the system, mean length of the type-icycle, and mean time that the system resides in phase0. In addition, we show that theM/G/1queue with vacations in random environment can be approximated by its discrete-time counterpart. Finally, we present some special cases of the model and numerical examples.

Consider the single server queue in which the system capacity is infinite and the customers are served on a first come, first served basis. Suppose the probability density functionf(t)and the cumulative distribution functionF(t)of the interarrival time are such that the ratef(t)/1-F(t)tends to a constant ast→∞, and the rate computed from the distribution of the service time tends to another constant. When the queue is in a stationary state, we derive a set of equations for the probabilities of the queue length and the states of the arrival and service processes. Solving the equations, we obtain approximate results for the stationary probabilities which can be used to obtain the stationary queue length distribution and waiting time distribution of a customer who arrives when the queue is in the stationary state.

We consider a single server system accepting two types of retrial customers, which arrive according to two independent Poisson streams. The service station can handle at most one customer, and in case of blocking, typeicustomer,i=1, 2, is routed to a separate typeiorbit queue of infinite capacity. Customers from the orbits try to access the server according to the constant retrial policy. We consider coupled orbit queues, and thus, when both orbit queues are non-empty, the orbit queueitries to re-dispatch a blocked customer of typeito the main service station after an exponentially distributed time with rate μi. If an orbit queue empties, the other orbit queue changes its re-dispatch rate from μito$\mu_{i}^{\ast}$. We consider both exponential and arbitrary distributed service requirements, and show that the probability generating function of the joint stationary orbit queue length distribution can be determined using the theory of Riemann (–Hilbert) boundary value problems. For exponential service requirements, we also investigate the exact tail asymptotic behavior of the stationary joint probability distribution of the two orbits with either an idle or a busy server by using the kernel method. Performance metrics are obtained, computational issues are discussed and a simple numerical example is presented.

We consider a multiserver queue in the Halfin-Whitt regime: as the number of serversngrows without a bound, the utilization approaches 1 from below at the rateAssuming that the service time distribution is lattice valued with a finite support, we characterize the limiting scaled stationary queue length distribution in terms of the stationary distribution of an explicitly constructed Markov chain. Furthermore, we obtain an explicit expression for the critical exponent for the moment generating function of a limiting stationary queue length. This exponent has a compact representation in terms of three parameters: the amount of spare capacity and the coefficients of variation of interarrival and service times. Interestingly, it matches an analogous exponent corresponding to a single-server queue in the conventional heavy-traffic regime.

In many practical queuing situations reneging and balking can only occur if the number of customers in the system is greater than a certain threshold value. Therefore, in this paper we study a single server Markovian queuing model having customers’ impatience (balking and reneging) with threshold, and retention of reneging customers. The transient analysis of the model is performed by using probability generating function technique. The expressions for the mean and variance of the number of customers in the system are obtained and a numerical example is also provided. Further the steady-state solution of the model is obtained. Finally, some important queuing models are derived as the special cases of this model.

We consider a two-node Jackson network in which the buffer of node 1 is truncated. Our interest is in the limit of the tail decay rate of the queue-length distribution of node 2 when the buffer size of node 1 goes to infinity, provided that the stability condition of the unlimited network is satisfied. We show that there can be three different cases for the limit. This generalizes some recent results obtained for the tandem Jackson network. Special cases and some numerical examples are also presented.
