    • Extended Vacation Systems and the Universality of the M/G/1/K Blocking Formula 

      Keilson, Julian; Servi, Les D. (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Operations Research Center, 1989-03)
      A simple blocking formula B(K) = (1 - p)EK [1 - pEK]- 1 relates the probability of blocking for the finite capacity M/G/1/K to EK, the steady state occupancy tail probability of the same system with infinite capacity. The ...

    • An N Server Cutoff Multi-Priority Queue 

      Schaack, Christian; Larson, Richard C., 1943- (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Operations Research Center, 1985-02)
      Consider a multi-priority, nonpreemptive, N-server Poisson arrival queueing system. Service times are negative exponential. In order to save available servers for higher priority customers, arriving customers of each lower ...
