Abstract

In this paper a unified approach is used for proving relationships between customer-stationary and time-stationary characteristics of service systems with varying service rate and point processes. This approach is based on an intensity conservation principle for general stationary continuous-time processes with imbedded stationary marked point processes. It enables us to work under weaker independence assumptions than usual in queueing theory.
