Technical Note—A Multiserver Queue with No Passing

    (Naval Postgraduate School, Monterey, California)

Abstract

This note deals with a queuing situation where customers must leave the system in the same order in which they arrive, owing to a physical constraint that prohibits passing. Poisson input and (basically) exponential service times are assumed, and the mean waiting time in the steady state is derived.
