Abstract

Vacations queues are motivated from the need of utilizing the server when it is idle. Most of papers in the literature assume that consecutive vacations follow the same distribution. Recently, Ibe et al. [5] consider a model where the lengths of consecutive vacations follow different distributions and obtain the steady state solution by a direct method. In this paper, we first consider the same model and obtain exact results as well as the decomposition for the queue length and the sojourn time via a generating function approach. We then demonstrate that our method can analyze more complex models with working vacations or with abandonment. Numerical results show insights into the performance of single server systems with power-saving modes.
