About closed queuing networks with variable number of queues
Consider a closed queueing network with the possibility of breakdowns at each server. When a breakdown occurs at one server, all customers there are transferred in queue with operational server immediately, and the server is then sent for repair. Steady- state probability of the queue sizes is obtained, and is shown to have a product form solution.
