Abstract

In the previous chapter, we were primarily concerned with queues where the service times were exponentially distributed. Queues with nonexponential service times were not really considered, except in a limited fashion in Section 2.9 while describing the Method of Stages. In this chapter, we consider the detailed analysis of single server queues with infinite buffers where the service times can have any general distribution. The arrival process is still assumed to be Poisson in nature.
