M/G/1/K queues with N-policy and setup times

A steady-state analysis is given for M/G/1/K queues with combined N-policy and setup times before service periods. The queue length distributions and the mean waiting times are obtained for the exhaustive service system, the gated service system, the E-limited service system, and the G-limited service system. Numerical examples are also provided. © 1993 J.C. Baltzer AG, Science Publishers.
