Abstract

AbstractTransient queue analysis is needed to model the influence of time-dependent flows on congestion in computer networks. It may be applied to the networks performance evaluation and the analysis of the transmissions quality of service. However, the exact queuing theory gives us only few practically useful results, concerning mainly M/M/1 and M/M/1/N queues. The article presents potentials of three approaches: Markovian queues solved numerically, the diffusion approximation, and fluid-flow approximation. We mention briefly a software we implemented to use these methods and summarise our experience with it.Keywordsdiffusion approximationfluid flow approximationMarkov chainstransient states
