Boualem, Mohamed; Djellab, Natalia; Aïssani, Djamil Stochastic approximations and monotonicity of a single server feedback retrial queue. (English) Zbl 1264.90051 Math. Probl. Eng. 2012, Article ID 536982, 13 p. (2012). Summary: We focus on a stochastic comparison of the Markov chains to derive some qualitative approximations for an \(M/G/1\) retrial queue with a Bernoulli feedback. The main objective is to use stochastic ordering techniques to establish various monotonicity results with respect to arrival rates, service time distributions, and retrial parameters.
