  • Abstract
    We analyze the information-theoretic capacity of two models of discrete-time queues, one involving single arrivals and single service in a slot, and the other involving batch arrivals and batch service. We explicitly specify the capacity-minimizing service distributions for both models, and obtain the resulting timing capacities
