Further results for the double ended queue

SummaryFor the double ended queue involving taxis and customers at a taxi-stand (Kashyap, 1965 a; b) the probabilities that (i) only taxis are waiting and (ii) only customers are waiting have been investigated by the use of Laplace transform. The L.T.s of the mean queue lengths of taxis and of customers are also obtained. The arrivals of taxis and customers are taken as general and Poisson respectively. The supplementary variable technique (Syski, 1960) has been used.
