Analysis of a queuing model for slotted ring networks

We study a multi-server multi-queue system which is intended to model a local area network with slotted ring protocol. Two special cases of the model are analysed and the results are used to motivate an approach to approximate mean queue lengths in the general model

Some aspects of queueing and storage processes : a thesis in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Statistics at Massey University

In this study the nature of systems consisting of a single queue are first considered. Attention is then drawn to an analogy between such systems and storage systems. A development of the single queue viz queues with feedback is considered after first considering feedback processes in general. The behaviour of queues, some with feedback loops, combined into networks is then considered. Finally, the application of such networks to the analysis of interconnected reservoir systems is considered and the conclusion drawn that such analytic methods complement the more recently developed mathematical programming methods by providing analytic solutions for sub systems behaviour and thus guiding the development of a system model
