On Single-Server Bulk-Queuing Processes with Binomial Input

Published Online:https://doi.org/10.1287/opre.12.4.527

In this paper, treating time as a discrete variable, we study the transient behavior of a bulk-service queuing system in which the number of customers arriving within a fixed time interval follows a binomial probability distribution. The service times are assumed to be identically distributed and statistically independent. The busy period and queue length distributions have been obtained in terms of probability generating functions.
