Abstract
For a network ofG/∞ service facilities, the transient joint distribution of the facility populations is shown by new simple methods to have a simple Poisson product form with simple explicit formulas for the means. In the network it is assumed that: (a) each facility has an infinite number of servers; (b) the service time distributions are general; (c) external traffic is non-homogeneous in time; (d) arrivals have random or deterministic routes through the network possibly returning to the same facility more than once; (e) arrivals use the facilities on their route sequentially or in parallel (as in the case of a circuitswitched telecommunication network). The results have relevance to communication networks and manufacturing systems.
