Abstract

This paper analyzes a finite buffer multiple and single vacation queues with change over times under (a,c,b) policy. The inter-arrival, service and vacation times are exponentially distributed. The server begins service if there are at least c units in the queue and the service takes place in batches with a minimum of size a and a maximum of size b ( a <= c<= b ). After a service completion if the q ueue size is less than c but not less than a secondary limit a , the server continues to serve and it takes a vacation if the queue size is less than a . The steady state queue length distributions are obtained and optimal cost policy is presented with some numerical experiences for some particular values of the parameters. The genetic algorithm is employed to search the optimal values of some important parameters of the system.
