On the system queue length distributions of LCFS-P queues with arbitrary acceptance and restarting policies
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 14 July 2016
Abstract
Shanthikumar and Sumita (1986) proved that the stationary system queue length distribution just after a departure instant is geometric for GI/GI/1 with LCFS-P/H service discipline and with a constant acceptance probability of an arriving customer, where P denotes preemptive and H is a restarting policy which may depend on the history of preemption. They also got interesting relationships among characteristics. We generalize those results for G/G/1 with an arbitrary restarting LCFS-P and with an arbitrary acceptance policy. Several corollaries are obtained. Fakinos' (1987) and Yamazaki's (1990) expressions for the system queue length distribution are extended. For a Poisson arrival case, we extend the well-known insensitivity for LCFS-P/resume, and discuss the stationary distribution for LCFS-P/repeat.
