Approximating the Equilibrium Behavior of Multi-Server Loss Systems
提出一种近似方法，用于计算在轻到中等流量下、服务台和顾客类型可区分且服务时间分布任意的多服务台损失系统的均衡行为，对排队论研究者有用。
A procedure is given for approximating the equilibrium behavior of multi-server loss systems having distinguishable servers and multiple customer types under light to moderate traffic intensity. Calls are assumed to arrive according to independent Poisson processes for each customer type. General service time distributions which may depend on both server and customer type are allowed. For N servers, the approximation routine consists of a simple iterative procedure in N nonlinear equations. Computational experience with respect to the convergence properties of the iteration and the accuracy of the approximation is given.
