Abstract

A particular queue, the general arrival, general service-time, infinite-server queue (GA/G/∞), is introduced and certain of its properties studied. Motivated by a life situation in which the interarrival times for service converge to 0, a different sort of regularity condition (involving a tail property of random measures) is imposed on the arrival process to prove various limit theorems. There are similarities to heavy-traffic theory.
