Abstract: This paper discusses multiserver feedback retrial queues with balking and control retrial rate. This system is analyzed as a quasi-birth-and-death (QBD) process and the necessary and sufficient condition for stability of the system is discussed. Some interesting system performance measures are obtained using matrix geometric method. The effects of various parameters on the system performance measures are illustrated numerically. Finally, the optimization of the retrial rate and specific probabilistic descriptors of the system are investigated. Copyright Springer Science + Business Media, Inc. 2006
