Abstract

The queueing system considered in this paper consists of r independent arrival channels and s independent service channels, where, as usual, the arrival and service channels are independent. In the queueing system, each server of the system has his own queue and arriving customers join the shortest line in the system. We give functional central limit theorems for the stochastic processes characterizing this system after appropriately scaling and translating the processes in traffic intensity ρ > 1.
