We consider a finite buffer GI/M(n)/1 queue with multiple working vacations and changeover time, where the server can keep on working but at a slower speed during the vacation period. Moreover, the amount of service demanded by a customer is conditioned by the queue length at the moment service is begun for that customer. We provide a recursive algorithm using the supplementary variable technique to numerically compute the stationary queue length distribution of the system. Finally, some numerical results of the model are presented to show the parameter effect on various performance measures.
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.
