    This paper concerns the cost optimisation analysis of a discrete-time finite-capacity multiserver queueing system with Bernoulli feedback, synchronous multiple and single working vacations, balking, and reneging during both busy and working vacation periods. A reneged customer can be retained in the system by employing certain persuasive mechanism for completion of service. Using recursive method, the explicit expressions for the stationary state probabilities are obtained. Various system performance measures are presented. Further, a cost model is formulated. Then, the optimization of the model is carried out using quadratic fit search method (QFSM). Finally, the impact of various system parameters on the performance measures of the queueing system is shown numerically.</p

    Stationary Analysis of a Multiserver queue with multiple working vacation and impatient customers

    We consider an M/M/c queue with multiple working vacation and impatient customers. The server serves the customers at a lower rate rather than completely halts the service during this working vacation period. The impatience of the customer’s arises when they arrive during the working vacation period, where the service rate of the customer’s is lower than the normal busy period. The queue is analyzed for multiple working vacation policies. The policy of a MWV demands the server to keep taking vacation until it finds at least a single customer waiting in the system at an instant vacation completion. On returning of the server from his vacation along with finding at least one customer in the system, the server changes its service rate, thereby giving rise to a non-vacation period; otherwise the server immediately goes for another WV. We formulate the probability generating function for the number of customers present when the server is both in a service period as well as in a working vacation period. We further derive a closed-form solution for various performance measures such as the mean queue length and the mean waiting time. The stochastic decomposition properties are verified for the model

    On a Multiserver Queueing System with Customers’ Impatience Until the End of Service Under Single and Multiple Vacation Policies

    This paper deals with a multiserver queueing system with Bernoulli feedback and impatient customers (balking and reneging) under synchronous multiple and single vacation policies. Reneged customers may be retained in the system. Using probability generating functions (PGFs) technique, we formally obtain the steady-state solution of the proposed queueing system. Further, important performance measures and cost model are derived. Finally, numerical examples are presented

    (R1881) Impatient Customers in Queueing System with Optional Vacation Policies and Power Saving Mode

    In this manuscript, a queueing system with two optional vacation policies, power-saving mode under reneging and retention of reneged customers in both vacations is analyzed. If the server is free, it chooses either of the vacations, classical vacation or working vacation. During vacations, the customers may get impatient due to delays and may leave the system, but they are retained in the system with some convincing mechanisms. On vacation completion, if the system is empty, the server is turned off to facilitate better utilization of the resources. Some of the operating system characteristics are derived using the probability generating functions technique. The numerical results are graphically represented by using MATLAB software
