Abstract: We consider a discrete-time 1 X Geo G retrial queue with general retrial times, and introduce working vacations and vacation interruption policy into the retrial queue. Firstly, we analyze the stationary condition for the embedded Markov chain at the departure epochs. Secondly, using supplementary variable method, we obtain the stationary probability distribution and some performance ...

Purpose: We consider a discrete-time retrial queue where the retrial time follows a general distribution, the server subject to Bernoulli vacation policy and the customer has preemptive resume priority, Bernoulli feedback strategy. The main purpose of this paper is to derive the generating functions of the stationary distribution of the system state, the orbit size and some important performanc...

A retrial queue with general retrial times, modified vacation policy and Bernoulli feedback is analyzed in this paper. If the server is busy or on vacation, an arriving customer either enters on orbit with probability b, or balks with probability 1-b. Otherwise the service of the arriving customer commences immediately. At the service completion epoch, the test customer may either enter the orb...

The present investigation deals with performance analysis of single server preemptive priority retrial queue with immediate Bernoulli feedback. There are two types of customers are considered, which are priority customers and ordinary customers. The priority customers do not form any queue and have an exclusive preemptive priority to receive their services over ordinary customers. After complet...

Single server queueing system in retrial is investigated, as well optional re-service,customer search and delayed repair. Furthermore, the permitted to take a vacation under Modified Bernoulli vacation. In this model, some of customer’s seek voluntary reservice for identical service taken, dissatisfied with first attempt without entering group (probability r1) or leaving area 1 – r1). The faili...

BACKGROUND Ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) is a common side effect in patients who receive intravenous sedation infusion. In routine care, after starting sedation infusion for patients who receive mechanical ventilation, interruption of sedation starts without protocol. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of daily sedation vacation protocol on the incidence of VAP in mechanically vent...

This paper is concerned with the analysis of a single server queueing system subject to Bernoulli vacation schedules with server setup and close down periods. An explicit expression for the probability generating function of the number of customers present in the system is obtained by using imbedded Markov chain technique. The steady state probabilities of no customer in the system at the end o...
