Abstract
Abstract We study a two-station tandem queueing system with a finite buffer of maximum size M (M≥0) between the stations. The first service station has L≥1(homogeneous) parallel servers with an unlimited waiting space, while at the second there are N≥1 (homogeneous) parallel servers. Assuming Poisson arrivals and exponential service times, we derive exact results for the blocking probabilities for some special cases, and we present a unified approach for the analysis of this class of models under saturation conditions. Practical applications of the model are also discussed.
