Abstract

This paper considers an infinite-buffer batch-service queue with Markovian arrival process, generally distributed and batch-size-dependent service time. We obtain a bivariate vector generating function of queue length and server content distribution at departure epoch of a batch. The complete joint distribution of queue length, server content and phase of the arrival process at departure epoch is extracted in terms of roots of the associated characteristic equation. By employing these probability vectors we also perceive the joint distribution at arbitrary and pre-arrival epochs. Our analytic procedure and results are demonstrated using some numerical examples for phase-type as well as deterministic service time distributions with high and low values of model parameters. The occurrence of multiple roots are also investigated in case of phase-type service time distribution. Finally, we also investigate the influence of correlation of the arrival process on the behavior of the system performance.
