Some extremal problems in the queueing theory
B. A. Rogozin Novosibirsk
Abstract:
The simplest queueing systems are considered. It is supposed that the periods of time between two succesive arrivals of the calls
$\tau_1,\tau_2,\dots,\tau_n,\dots$ as well as the service times
$\eta_1,\eta_2,\dots,\eta_n,\dots$ are independent identically distributed random variables, with
$\eta_1,\eta_2,\dots,\eta_n$ being independent of
$\tau_1,\tau_2,\dots,\tau_n,\dots$.
In the case of queueing systems it is established that when the usual conditions are satisfied, the distribution of
$\tau_1$ is fixed and
$\mathbf E\eta_1=\alpha$, the greatest lower bound of the expectation of the limit distribution of the waiting time
$\mathbf EW$ is attained on the distribution
$\mathbf P\{\eta_1=\alpha\}=1$. The similar question concerning
$\mathbf EW$ is considered when the distribution of
$\eta_1$ is fixed and
$\mathbf E\tau_1=\beta$. Besides in the same situation an upper estimate for
$\mathbf EW$ is given.
In the case of systems with losses of calls it is established that the extrema of the probability to be served when the distribution of
$\tau_1$ is fixed and
$\mathbf E\eta_1=\alpha$ is attained on, the distributions of
$\eta_1$ such that $\mathbf P\{\eta_1=x_1\}+\mathbf P\{\eta_2=x_2\}=1$ for some
$x_1\ge0$,
$x_2\ge0$.
