  • Abstract
    It is shown that, under certain conditions, it is possible to have mean packet delay greater than mean message delay in single channel networks. The analysis includes overheads and transmission interference. It is shown further that for exponential message lengths, under the same assumptions, mean packet delay is always greater than mean message delay.
