Abstract

In this paper we analyze a single server two-queue model with Bernoulli schedules. This discipline is very flexible and contains the exhaustive and 1-limited disciplines as special cases. We formulate the queueing system as a Riemann boundary value problem with shift. The boundary value problem is solved by exploring a Fredholm integral equation around the unit circle. Some numerical examples are presented at the end of the paper.
