Analysis and Computational Algorithm for Queues with State-Dependent Vacations II: M(n)/G/1/K

In this paper we study a queueing system with state-dependent services and state-dependent vacations, or simply G/M(n)/1/K. Since the service rate is state-dependent, this system includes G/M/c and G/M/c/K queues with various types of station vacations as special cases. We provide a recursive algorithm using the supplementary variable technique to numerically compute the stationary queue length distribution of the system. The only input requirement is the Laplace-Stieltjes transform of the interarrival distribution as well as the state-dependent service rate and state-dependent vacation rate. In a subsequent companion paper, we study its dual system M(n)/G/1/K queue with statedependent vacations.
