Homogeneous systems<br />

For the better underst<strong>and</strong>ing let consider an M/G/1 system without server<br />

vacations treated in details in [76]. One of the performance measures in our<br />

system is the mean message response time E[T ] defined as the mean time<br />

from the arrival of a new message to its service completion, that is, the mean<br />

time a message spends in the service facility. Since the mean time that each<br />

message takes to complete cycle of staying in the source <strong>and</strong> staying in the<br />

service facility is E[T ] + 1/λ, the throughput γ of the system, which is<br />

defined as the mean number of messages served per unit time in the whole<br />

system, is given by N/(E[T ] + 1/λ). On the other h<strong>and</strong>, if P0 is the<br />

probability that the server is idle at an arbitary time, then ρ ′ = 1 − P0 is the<br />

carried load or server utilization, namely, the long run fraction of the time<br />

that the server is busy. Thus, the throughput is also given by (1 − P0)/b. By<br />

equating these two expressions for the throughput, we get<br />

γ =<br />
