Abstract
In recent years, a number of models involving different compatibilities between jobs and servers in queueing systems, or between agents and resources in matching systems, have been studied, and, under Markov assumptions and appropriate stability conditions, the stationary distributions have been shown to have product forms. We survey these results and show how, under an appropriate detailed description of the state, many existing product-form results are corollaries of similar results for the Order Independent queue. We also discuss how to use the product-form results to determine distributions for steady-state response times.
