Abstract
The many-server queue with service time having rational Laplace transform of order 2 is considered. An expression for the asymptotic queue-length distribution is obtained. A relatively simple formula for the mean queue length is also found. A few numerical results on the mean queue length and on the probability of having to wait are given for the case of three servers. Some approximations for these quantities are also considered.Keywords
