Some important results on the variance of the $M|G|\infty$ queue busy period are presented. Often, this parameter depends on the whole structure of the service time distribution. So, the importance of the bounds presented, depending only on…
In this paper we study the maximum queue length $M$ (in terms of the number of customers present) in a busy cycle in the M/G/1 queue. Assume that the service times have a logconvex density. For such (heavy-tailed) service-time distributions…
We investigate the transient and stationary queue-length distributions of a class of service systems with correlated service times. The classical $M^X/G/1$ queue with semi-Markov service times is the most prominent example in this class and…
In this article it is shown that if the busy period of a MGinf queue system is PME distributed, the service time is a random variable with a long tail distribution. The result is obtained through Laplace transforms analysis.
In this paper continuity theorems are established for the number of losses during a busy period of the $M/M/1/n$ queue. We consider an $M/GI/1/n$ queueing system where the service time probability distribution, slightly different in a…
We consider the single server queue with service in random order. For a large class of heavy-tailed service time distributions, we determine the asymptotic behavior of the waiting time distribution. For the special case of Poisson arrivals…
Approximations for the mean performance indices for the M/G/c queue rely on the approximate computation of the probability that an arriving request has to wait for service and of the minimum of residual service times if all servers are…
The problems arising when the moments of service time distributions, for which the MGinf queue system busy period and busy cycle become very easy to study, are presented and it is shown how to overcome them. The busy cycle renewal function…
In this paper we analyze a single server queue with batch arrivals and semi-Markovian service times. We also include the feature that the first service of each busy period might have a different distribution than subsequent service times.…
The busy period length distribution function knowledge is important for any queue system, and for the MGINF queue. But the mathematical expressions are in general very complicated, with a few exceptions, involving usually infinite sums and…
This paper investigates the capacity of a channel in which information is conveyed by the timing of consecutive packets passing through a queue with independent and identically distributed service times. Such timing channels are commonly…
We consider a single server queueing system with admission control and the possibility to switch dynamically between a low and a high service rate, and examine the benefit of this service rate flexibility. We formulate a discounted Markov…
Recent studies indicate that in many situations service times are affected by the experienced queueing delay of the particular customer. This effect has been detected in different areas, such as health care, call centers and…

The subject of this paper is the problem of estimating service time distribution of the $M/G/\infty$ queue from incomplete data on the queue. The goal is to estimate $G$ from observations of the queue--length process at the points of the…
The $M/GI/m/n$ queueing system with $m$ homogeneous servers and the finite number $n$ of waiting spaces is studied. Let $\lambda$ be the customers arrival rate, and let $\mu$ be the reciprocal of the expected service time of a customer.…
This note describes several open questions concerning scaling limits of queue-length processes of symmetric queues in heavy traffic, distinguishing between service-time distributions with finite and infinite variance.
We analyze an M/M/1 queue with a service discipline in which customers, upon arriving when the server is busy, search a sequence of stations for a vacant station at which to wait, and in which the server, upon becoming free when one or more…
This paper proposes the $\rm{M}^{\rm X}/\rm{G}/1$ queueing model to represent arrivals of segmented packets when message segmentations occur. This queueing model enables us to derive the closed form of mean response time, given payload…
