Abstract

A mathematical model of a queueing system with group input flow is investigated in the article and compared to a system with self-similar input flow. Models are developed for the analysis of the performance characteristics of data transmission systems with bounded size of buffer memory and with self-similar input traffic. The results of an analysis of the systems demonstrates that their characteristics have a high degree of analogy.
