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. [2] [3]
A M/M/1 queue means that the time between arrivals is Markovian (M), i.e. the inter-arrival time follows an exponential distribution of parameter λ. The second M means that the service time is Markovian: it follows an exponential distribution of parameter μ. The last parameter is the number of service channel which one (1).
Lindley's integral equation is a relationship satisfied by the stationary waiting time distribution F(x) in a G/G/1 queue. = ()Where K(x) is the distribution function of the random variable denoting the difference between the (k - 1)th customer's arrival and the inter-arrival time between (k - 1)th and kth customers.
In mathematical queueing theory, Little's law (also result, theorem, lemma, or formula [1] [2]) is a theorem by John Little which states that the long-term average number L of customers in a stationary system is equal to the long-term average effective arrival rate λ multiplied by the average time W that a customer spends in the system.
The arrivals in the process whose intensity is () are the "daughters" of the arrival at time . The integral ∫ 0 ∞ ϕ ( t ) d t {\displaystyle \int _{0}^{\infty }\phi (t)\,dt} is the average number of daughters of each arrival and is called the branching ratio .
and F(u) is the service time distribution and λ the Poisson arrival rate of jobs to the queue. Markov chains with generator matrices or block matrices of this form are called M/G/1 type Markov chains, [ 13 ] a term coined by Marcel F. Neuts .
The average response time or sojourn time (total time a customer spends in the system) does not depend on scheduling discipline and can be computed using Little's law as 1/(μ − λ). The average time spent waiting is 1/(μ − λ) − 1/μ = ρ/(μ − λ). The distribution of response times experienced does depend on scheduling discipline.
The probability that n customers are in the queueing system, the average number of customers in the queueing system, the average number of customers in the waiting line, the average time spent by a customer in the total queuing system, the average time spent by a customer in the waiting line, and finally the probability that the server is busy ...
