Key Equations

(9-1)

Where:
X = number of arrivals per unit of time (e.g., hour)
P(X) = probability of exactly X arrivals
λ = average arrival rate (i.e., average number of arrivals per unit of time)
e = 2.7183 (known as the exponential constant)

• Poisson probability distribution used in describing arrivals.

(9-2) P (t) = e-μt for t ≥ 0


Where:
t = service time
P(t) = probability that service time will be greater than t
μ = average service rate (i.e., average number of customers served per unit of time)
e = 2.7183 (exponential constant)

• Exponential probability distribution used in describing service times.

Equations 9-3 through 9-9 describe the operating characteristics in a single-server queuing system that has Poisson arrivals
and exponential service times.

λ = average number of arrivals per time period (e.g., per hour)


μ = average number of people or items served per time period

(9-3) ρ = λ / μ

• Average server utilization in the system.

(9-5) L = L q + λ / μ

(9-9) Pn = (λ / μ) n P0

(9-10) Total cost = Cw × L + Cs × s


Where:
Cw = customer waiting cost per unit time period
L = average number of customers in the system
Cs = cost of providing service per server per unit time period
s = Number of servers in the queuing system

• Total cost is the sum of waiting cost and service cost.
