Abstract

In this paper computationally convenient analytic methods are developed for the analysis of two classes of finite queueing systems with (1) arrivals with Poisson properties, general state dependent service time distribution and a single server and (2) general state dependent inter-arrival times, exponential service times and s(≥ 1) servers.
