Abstract :
Probabilistic models are presented and investigated to describe the service furnished to messages sent via communications channels on which messages in progress may be "destroyed" by a new message demand. Retries by destroyed messages are modeled. The general approach utilizes diffusion approximations. The quality of the numerical results is evaluated by comparison with simulations, and is found to be satisfactory.
