Probabilistic priorities in the M/G/1 queue

D. E. Matthews

Naval Research Logistics Quarterly, 1977, vol. 24, issue 3, 457-462

Abstract: A simple method is presented for deriving the mean and variance of the queueing time distribution in an M/G/1 queue when the priorities assigned to customers have an assignment probability distribution. Several examples illustrate the results. The mean and variance of the queueing time distribution for the longest service time discipline are derived, and its disadvantages are discussed.
