Review text

A two-server system with first-come first-served discipline and a threshold for switching on and off a second server is searched by birth- death processes with state-dependent down rates. Laplace transforms and generating function methods are used to get an explicit expression of the equilibrium density of the waiting and sojourn times of a tagged customer. By noting that the distributions of these random variables differ in single-server and two-server systems, the comparison to the corresponding single-server system [see the author, ibid. 4, No.3, 213- 235 (1989; Zbl 0671.60089)] is performed.

Recommendations

• Sojourn and waiting times in a single-server system with state-dependent mean service rate
• A two-queue and two-server model with a threshold-based control service policy
• Multi‐server Batch‐service Systems
• Threshold policies for a single-server queuing network.
• Busy period and stationary distribution for the queueing system \(\mathrm{M}^\theta/\mathrm{G}/1/\infty\) with a threshold switching between service modes
