摘要
This letter focuses on the waiting time of customers in a single-server queueing system, served according to one of two well-known scheduling disciplines, Random-Order-of-Service (ROS) and First-Come-First-Served (FCFS). Arrivals are modeled with a Markov-Modulated Poisson Process (MMPP); service times are exponential. For two basic settings, ROS outperforms FCFS by several percent in terms of mean waiting time. This finding is supported by Monte Carlo simulation, as well as an intuitive argument, motivating the usefulness of ROS as alternative to FCFS. (C) 2015 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
