This paper analyzes a discrete-time finite buffer renewal input queue with multipleworking vacations where services are performed in batches of maximum size “b”. The service times bothduring a regular service period and vacation period and vacation times are geometricallydistributed. Employing the supplementary variable and imbedded Markov chain techniques, wederive the steady-state queue length distributions at pre-arrival, arbitrary and outsideobserver’s observation epochs. Based on the queue length distributions, some performancemeasures and waiting time distribution in the queue have been discussed. Finally,numerical results showing the effect of model parameters on the key performance measuresare presented.
