Abstract
A brief survey of the literature on sojourn time problems in single node feedback queueing systems is presented. The derivation of the distribution and moments of the sojourn time of a typical customer in a Markov renewal queue with state dependent feedback is considered in depth. The techniques used relate to the derivation of a first passage time distribution in a particular Markov renewal process. These results are applied to birth-death queues with state dependent feedback. For such models an alternative approach using the theory of Markov chains in continuous time is also examined.
