Abstract :
The queue occupancy distribution of the distributed queue-dual-bus (DQDB) station is derived through the formulation and exact analysis of a queuing model with the following characteristic: the packet service time requirements depends on the state of an underlying Markov-structured process at the time when the packet is forwarded to the server (head of the queue). Numerical results are presented and compared with simulation results to evaluate the accuracy of the involved approximations
