Abstract
Markovian Arrival Processes (MAPs) [9] are a general class of point processes which admits, hyper-exponential, Erlang, and Markov Modulated Poisson Processes (MMPPs) as special cases. MAPs can be easily integrated within queueing models. This makes MAPs useful for evaluating the impact of non-Poisson workloads in networking and for quantifying the performance of multi-tiered e-commerce applications and disk drives [8, 10].

The Impact of Autocorrelation on Queuing Systems
The performance of single-server queues with independent interarrival intervals and service demands is well understood, and often analytically tractable. In particular, the M/M/1 queue has been thoroughly studied, due to its analytical tractability. ...
A Characterization of M/G/1 Queues with Renewal Departure Processes
Burke [Burke, P. J. 1956. The output of a queueing system. Oper. Res.4 699--704.] showed that the departure process from an M/M/1 queue with infinite capacity was in fact a Poisson process. Using methods from semi-Markov process theory, this paper ...
Higher moments of the waiting time distribution in M/G/1 retrial queues
This work analyzes the waiting time distribution in the M/G/1 retrial queue. The first two moments of the waiting time distribution are known from the literature. In this work we obtain all the moments of the waiting time distribution.
