Abstract
In this chapter models of multi-rate systems in which inelastic and elastic calls are jointly serviced are investigated. Elasticity of a call means that its width (i.e. the number of channels needed to service it) may vary as a function of the number of free channels. In such systems channel utilization may essentially be improved. Note that such models are not only of theoretical interest, but also of great interest for practical applications. In fact, in view of the development of the technology of coding and compression, some types of multimedia information in networks may be adapted to the available number of free bands. There are quite a number of such examples in telecommunication networks (cf. [3–5]).
