We study G/G/n + GI queues in which customer patience times are independent, identically distributed following a general distribution. When a customer’s waiting time in queue ex...
We consider a Markovian multiserver queueing model with time dependent parameters where waiting customers may abandon and subsequently retry. We provide simple fluid and diffusion ...

Consider a system (e.g. a computer farm or a call center) operating as a M/M/c queue, where c = 1, or 1 < c < ∞, or c = ∞. The system as a whole suffers disastrous break...
In a M/M/N+M queue, when there are many customers waiting, it may be preferable to reject a new arrival rather than risk that arrival later abandoning without receiving service. O...
This paper studies the M/M/s+M queue, i.e., the M/M/s queue with customer abandonment, also called the Erlang-A model, having independent and identically distributed customer aban...
