We examine a generalised queuing model which we call the G/G/n/G/+ model, which encompasses the G/G/n and G/G/n/s models as special cases. Our model accommodates useful generalisations in user behaviour and limitations on the facilities for…

We consider the heavy-traffic approximation to the $GI/M/s$ queueing system in the Halfin-Whitt regime, where both the number of servers $s$ and the arrival rate $\lambda$ grow large (taking the service rate as unity), with…

We consider a processor sharing queue where the number of jobs served at any time is limited to $K$, with the excess jobs waiting in a buffer. We use random counting measures on the positive axis to model this system. The limit of this…
