Abstract

This paper studies the transient behaviour of tandem queueing system consisting of an arbitrary number r of queues in series with infinite server service facility at each queue. Poisson arrivals with time dependent parameter and exponential service times have been assumed. Infinite server queues realistically describe those queues in which sufficient service capacity exist to prevent virtually any waiting by the customer present. The model is suitable for both phase type service as well services in series. Very elegant solutions have been obtained and it has been shown that if the queue sizes are initially independent and Poisson then they remain independent and Poisson for all t.
