Queueing theory is the mathematical study of waiting lines, or queues. [1] A queueing model is constructed so that queue lengths and waiting time can be predicted. [1] Queueing theory is generally considered a branch of operations research because the results are often used when making business decisions about the resources needed to provide a ...
An M/M/1 queueing node. In queueing theory, a discipline within the mathematical theory of probability, an M/M/1 queue represents the queue length in a system having a single server, where arrivals are determined by a Poisson process and job service times have an exponential distribution. The model name is written in Kendall's notation.
In queueing theory, a discipline within the mathematical theory of probability, the M/M/c queue (or Erlang–C model [1]: 495 ) is a multi-server queueing model. [2] In Kendall's notation it describes a system where arrivals form a single queue and are governed by a Poisson process, there are c servers, and job service times are exponentially distributed. [3]
Waiting queue at Ottawa station.. In queueing theory, a discipline within the mathematical theory of probability, Kendall's notation (or sometimes Kendall notation) is the standard system used to describe and classify a queueing node.
In queueing theory, a discipline within the mathematical theory of probability, a Markovian arrival process (MAP or MArP [1]) is a mathematical model for the time between job arrivals to a system. The simplest such process is a Poisson process where the time between each arrival is exponentially distributed .
In queueing theory, a discipline within the mathematical theory of probability, an M/G/1 queue is a queue model where arrivals are Markovian (modulated by a Poisson process), service times have a General distribution and there is a single server. [1]
The model name is written in Kendall's notation. [1] Agner Krarup Erlang first published on this model in 1909, starting the subject of queueing theory. [2] [3] An extension of this model with more than one server is the M/D/c queue.
Few results are known for the general G/G/k model as it generalises the M/G/k queue for which few metrics are known. Bounds can be computed using mean value analysis techniques, adapting results from the M/M/c queue model, using heavy traffic approximations, empirical results [8]: 189 [9] or approximating distributions by phase type distributions and then using matrix analytic methods to solve ...
