Abstract

This paper analyzes adiscrete-time multi-server queue in which service capacity of eachserver is a minimum of one and a maximum of b customers. Theinterarrival- and service-times are assumed to be independent andgeometrically distributed. The queue is analyzed under theassumptions of early arrival system and late arrival system withdelayed access. Besides, obtaining state probabilities atarbitrary and outside observer's observation epochs, someperformance measures and waiting-time distribution in the queuehave also been discussed. Finally, it is shown that in limitingcase the results obtained in thispaper tend to the continuous-time counterpart.
