Abstract :
This reported work considers a discrete-time multiserver queue in which the customers wait for service for a limited time with a general distribution and leave the system if the service has not begun within that time. The customers arrive according to a Bernoulli process and the service times are geometrically distributed. Presented are exact expressions for the loss probability and the queue length distribution.
