On a numerical method for calculating state probabilities for queueing systems with more than one waiting line (Q1094319)

A numerical method for calculating state probabilities of queueing systems with more than one waiting line in parallel is based on power series expansions of state probabilities as functions of the traffic intensity of the system. Coefficients of these power series are calculated recursively, and coefficients of power series expansions of moments of queue length distributions are derived from them. Their extrapolations at the origin are obtained using the asymptotic behaviour of moments in heavy traffic. Two examples of exponential queueing systems are used to illustrate and discuss the method.
