Abstract

For the Ek/G/1 queue with finite waiting room the phase technique is used to analyse the Markov chain imbedded in the queueing process at successive instants at which customers complete service, and the distribution of queue length is obtained. The limit as the size of the waiting room becomes infinite is found.
