Abstract

The Wiener-Hopf factorization gives a method to get the Laplace transform of the stationary waiting time of a GI/GI/1 FIFO queue. In practice, see Section 2.5 of Chapter 2, this method consists in locating the poles and the roots of a function in the complex plane. In practice, it is not always easy to get the number of poles and zeros of a complex function in general, and a fortiori to locate them. For this reason, getting some simple qualitative results for the GI/GI/1 FIFO queue may turn out to be quite difficult.
