A unified cost function for M/G/1 queueing systems with removable server.

Jesús R. Artalejo (1992)

Trabajos de Investigación Operativa

Similarity:

This article deals with the three classic policies for an M/G/1 queueing system (N, T, and D-policy). The optimum policies were compared in several precedent studies, but the comparison was performed employing different cost functions, so that the D-policy is superior to the N-policy when the cost function is based on the mean work-load, whilst the average queue length is used to show the superiority of the N-policy over the T-policy. In order to achieve a comparison of the three policies...

Analysis of operating characteristics for the heterogeneous batch arrival queue with server startup and breakdowns

Jau-Chuan Ke, Kuo-Hsiung Wang (2003)

Similarity:

In this paper we consider a like-queue production system in which server startup and breakdowns are possible. The server is turned on (i.e. begins startup) when N units are accumulated in the system and off when the system is empty. We model this system by an M [ x ] /M/1 queue with server breakdowns and startup time under the N policy. The arrival rate varies according to the server’s status: off, startup, busy, or breakdown. While the server is working, he is subject to breakdowns according...
