Based on the careful analysis of several hundred publications, this book uniformly describes
basic methods of analysis and critical results of the theory of retrial queues. Chapters …

We consider a branch of queueing theory, retrial queueing systems, which is characterized
by the following basic assumption: a customer who cannot receive service (due to finite …

Retrial queues have been widely used to model many problems arising in telephone
switching systems, telecommunication networks, computer networks and computer systems …

In this paper we survey work related to queues with interruptions that occur due to many
reasons such as server breakdowns, servers taking emergency breaks, and customers …

Abstract Analysis of an unreliable-server retrial queue with customer's feedback and
impatience is presented. Truncated classical and constant retrial policies are taken into …

We consider a retrial queueing model with collision arising from the specific communication
protocol CSMAICD. Under the retrial control policy in which the retrial rate is inversely …

This paper deals with a single server retrial queueing system subject to active and
independent breakdowns. The objective is to extend the results given independently by …

This paper discusses a retrial queue with Bernoulli feedback, where the server is subjected
to starting failure. The retrial time is assumed to follow an arbitrary distribution and the …

" Constructive Computation in Stochastic Models with Applications: The RG-Factorizations"
provides a unified, constructive and algorithmic framework for numerical computation of …

This paper deals with the steady state behaviour of an Mx/G/1 queue with general retrial
time and Bernoulli vacation schedule for an unreliable server, which consists of a …
