Abstract:

In this paper, we consider a multi-server queuing system in which additional servers are allowed for a longer queue to reduce the customer’s balking and reneging behavior. The customers are assumed to arrive in Poisson fashion and their service- times follow exponential distribution. The number of servers in long run depends on the queue-length. We obtain equilibrium queue size distribution. The expression for expected number of customers in the system in the long run has been obtained. Some other performance measures have also been provided. In order to match our results with earlier work, special cases are discussed. The numerical results are presented to verify the validity of the proposed analytical method.

M M m K Queue With Additional Servers and Discouragement (RESEARCH NOTE)

Waiting in long queue is undesirable due to which in some practical situations customers become impatient and leave the system. In such cases providing additional servers can reduce long queue. This investigation deals with multi-server queueing system with additional servers and discouragement. The customers arrive in poisson fashion and are served exponentially by a pool of permanent and addi...

Transient Analysis of M/M/R Machining System with Mixed Standbys, Switching Failures, Balking, Reneging and Additional Removable Repairmen

The objective of this paper is to study the M/M/R machine repair queueing system with mixed standbys. The life-time and repair time of units are assumed to be exponentially distributed. Failed units are repaired on FCFS basis. The standbys have switching failure probability q (0≤q≤1). The repair facility of the system consists of R permanent as well as r additional removable repairmen. Due to i...

Analysis of an M/M/1/N Queue with Balking, Reneging and Server Vacations

This paper presents an analysis for an M/M/1/N queueing system with balking, reneging and server vacations. Arriving customers balk (do not enter) with a probability and renege (leave the queue after entering) according to a negative exponential distribution. It is assumed that the server has a multiple vacation. By using the Markov process method, we first develop the equations of the steady s...

Transient Solution of an M/M/1 Variant Working Vacation Queue with Balking

This paper presents the transient solution of a variant working vacation queue with balking. Customers arrive according to a Poisson process and decide to join the queue with probability $b$ or balk with $bar{b} = 1-b$. As soon as the system becomes empty, the server takes working vacation. The service times during regular busy period and working vacation period, and vacation times are assumed ...

Performance Analysis of an M/M/c/N Queueing System with Balking, Reneging and Synchronous Vacations of Partial Servers

In this paper, we present an analysis for an M/M/c/N queueing system with balking, reneging and synchronous vacations of partial servers together. It is assumed that arriving customers balk with a probability and renege according to an exponential distribution. The vacation policy prescribes that any d (0<d<c) servers take a vacation together when these d servers find that no customers are wait...

Convexity Properties and Comparative Statics for M/M/S Queues with Balking and Reneging

We use sample path arguments to derive convexity properties of an M/M/S queue with impatient customers that balk and renege. First, assuming that the balking probability and reneging rate are increasing and concave in the total number of customers in the system (head-count), we prove that the expected head-count is convex decreasing in the capacity (service rate). Second, with linear reneging a...
