Abstract

This work analyses a queueing mechanism with infinitely many servers in which the interarrival interval T preceding the arrival of a customer and his service time S are assumed correlated. A bivariate distribution with negative exponential marginals is used and the Laplace transforms pn (z) of the system probabilities in transient state are obtained. Closed-form expressions for the steady-state probabilities pn and their moments are given too. Finally the output process is investigated and conclusions are drawn from numerical calculations.
