We study a time-changed variant of the Erlang queue by taking the first hitting time of a mixed stable subordinator as the time-changing component. We call it the mixed time-changed Erlang queue. We derive the system of fractional…

In this paper, we analyze the steady state maximum overlap time in the M/M/1 queue. We derive the maximum overlap time tail distribution, its moments and the moment generating function. We also analyze the steady state minimum overlap time…
