We investigate the fixed, sample-size, batch-mean procedure for creating confidence intervals from simulated data obtained from a stochastic queueing system with multiple customer classes. We show that, for a multiclass M/M/1 queue, serial correlation between customers of the same class...

Green, Kolesar and Svoronos (in press) and Green and Kolesar (in press) use numerical methods to investigate the behavior of multiserver Markov queues with a Poisson arrival process having a sinusoidal arrival rate. For this model they propose an approximation for long-run average performance...

This paper investigates simple approximations for stochastic point processes. As in several previous studies, the approximating process is a renewal process characterized by the first two moments of the renewal interval. The approximating renewal-interval distribution itself is a convenient...
