The hypothesis: "If a system can be represented by a model without any inter-server control flow, the underlying problem is of type Product Form Queueing Network (PFQN), otherwise of type Non Product Form Queueing Network (NPFQN)" was raised by W. Zorn. This launches a new distinction criterion between Product Form and Non Product Form Queueing Networks on a structural level. In this paper a validation of this hypothesis is discussed with the help of different representative examples.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
