Abstract

In this paper, we consider a queue with compound Poisson arrivals, phase type required service times in which a single processor serves according to the processor-sharing discipline. For this queue, we derive a system of equations for the transform of the queue-length and obtain the moments of the queue-length as a solution of linear equations. We also obtain a system of equations for the joint transforms of the sojourn time and the queue-length and find the moments of the sojourn time as a solution of linear equations. Numerical examples show that the smaller the variation of the required service times becomes, the larger the mean and variance of the sojourn times become.
