We also show that the time-dependent queueing size at the departure point converges to the corresponding steady-state queueing size at the departure point.展开更多

Beginning with limit theorems for the simple M/M/1 queuing system, we demonstrate the methodology for applying these theorems for the benefit of service systems. The limit theorems studied here are dominant in the literature. Our contribution is primarily on the analysis leading to the application of these theorems in various problem situations for better operations. Relevant Examples are included to aid the application of the results studied in this work.展开更多

文摘By studying the spectral properties of the underlying operator corresponding to the M/G/1 queueing model with optional second service we obtain that the time-dependent solution of the model strongly converges to its steady-state solution. We also show that the time-dependent queueing size at the departure point converges to the corresponding steady-state queueing size at the departure point.
