This paper provides simple proofs of two standard results for the stable GI/G/1 queue on the structure of the distribution functions of the stationary virtual waiting time and the stationary queue-length Our argument is applicable to more general single server systems than the queue GI/G/1.

Avi-Itzhak, Maxwell and Miller (1965) studied a queueing model with a single server serving two service units with alternating priority. Their model explored the possibility of having the alternating priority model treated in this paper with a single server serving alternately between two service units in tandem.Here we study the distribution of busy period, virtual waiting time and queue length and their limiting behavior.

We consider a single-server queueing system in which a customer gives up whenever his waiting time is larger than a random threshold, his patience time. In the case of a GI/GI/1 queue with i.i.d. patience times, we establish the extensions of the classical GI/GI/1 formulae concerning the stability condition and the relation between actual and virtual waiting-time distribution functions. We also prove that these last two distribution functions coincide in the case of a Poisson input process and determine their common law.

We discuss a single-server queue whose input is the versatile Markovian point process recently introduced by Neuts [22] herein to be called the N-process. Special cases of the N-process discussed earlier in the literature include a number of complex models such as the Markov-modulated Poisson process, the superposition of a Poisson process and a phase-type renewal process, etc. This queueing model has great appeal in its applicability to real world situations especially such as those involving inhibition or stimulation of arrivals by certain renewals. The paper presents formulas in forms which are computationally tractable and provides a unified treatment of many models which were discussed earlier by several authors and which turn out to be special cases. Among the topics discussed are busy-period characteristics, queue-length distributions, moments of the queue length and virtual waiting time. We draw particular attention to our generalization of the Pollaczek–Khinchin formula for the Laplace–Stieltjes transform of the virtual waiting time of the M/G/1 queue to the present model and the resulting Volterra system of integral equations. The analysis presented here serves as an example of the power of Markov renewal theory.

For M/GI/1/∞ queues with instantaneous Bernoulli feedback time- and customer-stationary characteristics of the number of customers in the system and of the waiting time are investigated. Customer-stationary characteristics are thereby obtained describing the behaviour of the queueing processes, for example, at arrival epochs, at feedback epochs, and at times at which an arbitrary (arriving or fed-back) customer enters the waiting room. The method used to obtain these characteristics consists of simple relationships between them and the time-stationary distribution of the number of customers in the system at an arbitrary point in time. The latter is obtained from the wellknown Pollaczek–Khinchine formula for M/GI/1/∞ queues without feedback.

Pollaczek's theory for the many server queue is generalized and extended. Pollaczek (1961) found the distribution of the actual waiting times in the model G/G/s as a solution of a set of integral equations. We give a somewhat more general set of integral equations from which the joint distribution of the actual waiting time and some other random variables may be found. With this joint distribution we can obtain distributions of a number of characteristic quantities, such as the virtual waiting time, the queue length, the number of busy servers, the busy period and the busy cycle. For a wide class of many server queues the formal expressions may lead to explicit results.
