Hypoexponential servers are commonly seen in today's computer and communication
networks whereby incoming packets are processed by the network server in multiple stages …

This paper presents modeling and analysis of a finite-queuing system of a server with two
stages of service. In real life, such systems may represent typical network servers or client …

A simplification and extension to Gordon and Newell's approach to closed queuing networks
is derived. The equations, valid for exponential servers, with one server being a multiserver …

A class of exponential server queuing networks, called semiclosed networks, is introduced.
In a semiclosed network, the number of customers К is a random variable such that K_< …

Performance modeling is an important topic in capacity planning and overload control for
web servers. We present a queueing model of an Apache web server that uses bursty arrival …

We present the results of a parametric study of the buffer size needed to prevent overflow or
loss in single and multiple server systems where data arrivals or service times are" bursty"," …

Queuing network models are commonly used to analyze the performance of computer
system. Unfortunately, the class of queuing network models which can be exactly analyzed …

Priority service disciplines are widely used in computer and communications systems. Many
such systems can be modeled by queuing networks, but presently developed theory does …

We will propose a new, iterative method for approximately analyzing closed networks of
queues with nonexponential service time distributions and FCFS scheduling. Our method is …
