Abstract:
An $M(t)/M(t)/S$ queue with catastrophes is considered and it is supposed that the catastrophes rates depend on the length of the queue. Sufficient conditions for weak ergodicity of the respective queue-length process and the respective bounds are obtained. Some examples are also considered.
Keywords:nonstationary Markovian queueing system; birth and death process with catastrophes; weak ergodicity; bounds; limiting characteristics; approximation.
