Vacation policies in an M/G/1 type queueing system with finite capacity

This paper deals with a queueing system with finite capacity in which the server passes from the active state to the inactive state each time a service terminates withv customers left in the system. During the active (inactive) phases, the arrival process is Poisson with parameter (₀). Denoting byu _n the duration of thenth inactive phase and byx _n the number of customers present at the end of thenth inactive phase, we assume that the bivariate random vectors {(v _n ,x _n ),n 1} are i.i.d. withx _n v+l a.s. The stationary queue length distributions immediately after a departure and at an arbitrary instant are related to the corresponding distributions in the classical model.
