Abstract

A surprisingly simple and explicit expression for the waiting time distribution of the MX/D/c batch arrival queue is derived by a full probabilistic analysis, requiring neither generating functions nor Laplace transforms. Unlike the solutions known so far, this expression presents no numerical complications, not even for high traffic intensities.
