Abstract

A En| M | 1 queue is defined as a single server queue with exponential service time and general cyclic arrival distributions of cycle length n. The waiting time distribution for such a queue is proved to be a sum of n exponential terms; this is a generalization of G | M | 1 queue results. Based on this a method for obtaining the steady-state waiting time distributions for En| M | 1 queues is introduced. An example is presented to show an application of En| M | 1 queues in deterministic routing.
