In this study, we consider a queuing model extension for a production system composed of several
parallel machines and the same number of transporters. To obtain the minimum waiting time of the jobs in the
queue, we present an exact solution for the proposed queuing model. The solution integrates M/M/C system
with M/M/1 system. We obtain explicit expressions for its steady-state behavior under M/M/C and M/M/1
assumptions. Further, in order to illustrate the usefulness of the proposed methods, numerical examples are
solved. On the basis of the results of these examples, some important conclusions are drawn. |
