Abstract: Queueing models are commonly applied to quantify the performance of production systems. Prior research has usually focused on deriving queueing models for a specific type of interruptions. However, machines generally suffer multiple types of interruptions in practical manufacturing systems. To satisfy this need, an integrated model is proposed, in which multiple types of interruptions commonly seen on the shop floor are considered.
