Binomial Schedule for an MG1 Type Queueing System with an Unreliable Server under N-Policy

الملخص EN

We consider in this paper an M/G/1 type queueing system with the following extensions.

First, the server is unreliable and is subject to random breakdowns.

Second, the server also implements the well-known N-policy.

Third, instead of a Bernoulli vacation schedule, the more general notion of binomial schedule with K vacations is applied.

A cost function with two decision variables is developed.

A numerical example shows the effect of the system parameters on the optimal management policy.
