Abstract

In this chapter we present an overview of the latest developments in queueing networks with product form stationary distributions. Under a general framework that allows instantaneous movements, we present sufficient conditions for the network to possess a product form solution. For the case where transitions can involve at most two nodes, we present necessary and sufficient conditions for the network to have a product form solution.
