Summary

We present a discrete-time round-robin queue with a last-in-first-served rule: a newly arriving job receives a quantum of service immediately and only thereafter joins the tail of the queue. For Bernoulli input and general arithmetic service times we compute steady-state probabilities and mean response times.
