Abstract
Obtains simple relationships among partial derivatives and moments of mean queue lengths in product form queueing network models. It is shown that the mean value analysis equations can be used to obtain recursive expressions which make it possible to easily evaluate these moments in a mean value analysis type recursion. These results are also considered important in applications such as optimization problems and sensitivity analysis. Finally, it is shown that some known mean value equations can be easily derived from the results proven
