Waiting Lines

• Queuing theory: Mathematical approach to the analysis of waiting lines.

• Goal of queuing analysis is to minimize the sum of two costs

– Customer waiting costs

– Service capacity costs

Waiting Lines

• Cost to provide waiting space• Loss of business

– Customers leaving– Customers refusing to wait

• Loss of goodwill• Reduction in customer satisfaction• Congestion may disrupt other business

Waiting Lines

System Characteristics

• Population Source– Infinite source: customer arrivals are

unrestricted– Finite source: number of potential

customers is limited

• Number of observers (channels)

• Arrival and service patterns

• Queue discipline (order of service)
