An explicit solution for the value function of a priority queue

Research output: Contribution to JournalArticleAcademicpeer-review

Abstract

We consider a multiclass preemptive-resume priority queue with Poisson arrivals and general service times. We derive explicit expressions for the discounted expected and long-run average weighted queue lengths and switching costs, the latter one only in the case of exponential service times. We illustrate our results with numerical calculations.
