Abstract

Nowadays, in different domains there are many systems whose processes are described by queueing models. This paper analyzes the characteristics of a queueing model called retrial queue in fuzzy environment using a technique called L-R method. The model considered contains only one server and is frequented only by patient customers. Basing on this technique, customer waiting time and customers number are easily computed in the orbit and in the entire system comparatively to mathematical non-linear programming method. A numerical example is proposed to shows the validity of this approach.

Keywords
