Interest of boundary kernel density techniques in evaluating an approximation error of queueing systems characteristics (Q2330259)

Summary: We show the interest of nonparametric methods taking into account the boundary correction techniques for a numerical evaluation of an approximation error between the stationary distributions of \(G / M / 1\) and \(M / M / 1\) queueing systems, when the density function of the general arrivals law \(G\) in the \(G / M / 1\) system is unknown and defined on a bounded support. To compute this error, we use two kinds of norms: the \(\mathbb{L}_1\) norm and the weight norm. Numerical examples based on simulation studies are presented for the two cases of considered norms. A comparative study of the results has been provided.
