Abstract :
A discrete-time infinite-capacity queue with a finite number of independent heterogeneous traffic sources is studied. The sources are modelled as on/off-sources with geometric off-periods and on-periods having a general distribution. The authors present a technique to derive closed-form expressions for the variances of the buffer contents and the delay
