Heavy traffic approximations for busy period in an M/G/[infinity] queue

Peter Hall

Stochastic Processes and their Applications, 1985, vol. 19, issue 2, 259-269

Abstract: A necessary and sufficient condition is given for busy period in an M/G/[infinity] queue to be asymptotically exponential with mean equal to expected busy period, as traffic intensity increases. The case where this condition fails is also investigated, and the results applied.
