fluid at ratep > 0 per machine if it is working. This fluid is fed into an infinite buffer with stochastic output rate …. Under the assumption that the machine processes are independent and identically distributed, we prove that the buffer … content at timet is less or equal in the increasing convex ordering to the buffer content at time t of a model withm′ ≤m …
