Abstract:
This paper deals with waiting times in a two-queue polling system in which one queue is served according to the Bernoulli service discipline and the other one attains exhaustive service. Exact results are derived for the LST's of the waiting time distributions via an iteration scheme. Based on those results the mean waiting times are expressed in the system parameters.
