Abstract. We study anMX/G/1queueing system where the arrival follows a compound Poisson process. The server provides the first service to all customers which is essential. Only some of the customers demand second service which is optional. The second optional service is given in two types. Soon after the system becomes empty the server takes a vacation and after returning from vacation the server may take second vacation which is optional. Using supplementary variable technique we derive the probability generating function for the number of customers in the system. Some performance measures are calculated. Some particular cases are derived.

Keywords: First essential service, Second optional service, Regular vacation, Second optional vacation and Supplementary variable technique.

92 2. The model

The following assumptions briefly describe the mathematical model of our study.

• Customers arrive at the system in batches of variable size in a compound Poisson process.

• There is a single server who provides the first essential service (FES) to all customers. The service time for FES follows a general distribution. Let B1(x)and

) ( 1 x

b respectively denote the distribution function and the density function of the

FES times.

• As soon as the first service is completed the customer can exercise any one of the following three options.

i. may leave the system with probability 1− p=q

ii. may opt for type 1 optional service with probability pp1 iii. may opt for type 2 optional service with probability pp2 wherep+q=1 and p1+p2=1

The type i (i=1, 2) optional service times are assumed to be negative exponential with mean service times 1 0 12

distribution and density function of type 1 and type 2 services respectively. • Further it is assumed thatµi(x)dxis the conditional probability of the completion

of the ith service given that the elapsed service time is x so that

• We assume that the FES and SOS are mutually independent of each other. Let

times respectively. Thus the total service time required by the server to complete the service cycle which may be called as modified service period is given by

• Whenever the system becomes empty, the server goes for a first regular vacation (FRV) of random lengthV1. Let V1(x)and v1(x) respectively be the distribution function and density function of the first vacation times.

• At the end of FRV, the server may take the second optional vacation SOV with probability θ. Otherwise he remains in the system with probability (1−θ)until a

new customer arrives. Let V2(x)andv2(x) respectively be the distribution function and density function for the SOV times. Further it is assumed that

3. Queue size distribution at a random epoch

Here we first set up the steady state equations for the stationary queue size distribution by treating elapsed service time, FES time, SOS time, FRV time and SOV time as supplementary variables. Then we solve these equations and derive the PGF’s, assuming that the system is in steady state condition. Let N(t) be the queue size (including one being served, if any),B1(0)(t) be the elapsed service time at tfor FES, ()

) 0 ( 2 t

B be the elapsed service time at tfor the SOS, V1(0)(t)be the elapsed vacation time at t for the FRV, V2(0)(t)be the elapsed vacation time at t for the SOV. For further development of this model let us introduce the random variable Y(t) as follows.

and ρhave been found in (56) and (54) respectively. Then using Little’s formulae, we obtain Wq,the average waiting time in the queue and ܹ, the average waiting time in the

6. Conclusion

The analysis carried out in“Abulk arrival non-markovian queueing system with two types of second optional services and with second optional vacation” is to obtain the probability generating function for the number of customers in the system and also to obtain waiting time of a customer in the system.
