In a stopped arrival queue the arrival process is switched off as soon as the available queue space is full and not switched on again until there is space in the queue. A simple approximation for GI/GI/1/N stopped arrival queues is developed and shown to be remarkably accurate in predicting throughput. Becausea two-stageflowline is equivalent to a stopped arrival queue, the GI/GI/1/N stopped arrival queue can be usedas the building block for approximating the performance of multistage flowlineswhere the service times at the stages have general distributions. Numerical tests of the throughput approximation show that it gives accurate throughput predictions, in spite of its simplicity and minimal computation requirements. |
