In this paper, we develop a finite capacity Single-server Markovian queuing system with encourage arrival, defeat balking and feedback customers. The steady state solution and the system characteristic are derived for this model and various probabilistic and performance measures of the system are derived.
Introduction
I. INTRODUCTION
Consumer behavior is one of the most uncertain characteristics of business environment. Customers often look for profit-making deals offered by various firms. To attract a greater number of customers, organizations forces by giving a variety of offers to the customers to improve the business. By giving attractive offers, the organizations will encourage the arrivals. This encourage customers are attack by the following offers offered by company and entered into the scheme is termed as defeat balking. Due to that, probability of balking customer is reduce. Attracting customers are termed as encouraged arrivals in this paper. The phenomenon of encouraged arrivals can also be understood as contrary to discouraged arrivals, as discussed by Kumar and Sharma [1]. Eventually, encouraged arrivals put the service facility under pressure, which can make customers dissatisfied with the service. Such customers those who re-join the queue to complete the service are termed as feedback customers in queuing literature. Feedback in queuing system is studied by Takacs [2].Sasikala and Thiagarajan [3], [4], [5], [6] studied reverse balking with controllable arrival with single server finite capacity. Sasikala and Abinaya [7] studied reverse balking with impatient customers. M.Thiagarajan, S.Premalatha [8], [9], [10], studied the Markovian feedback queuing system with discouraged arrivals and retention of reneged customers with controllable arrival rates.
The concept of defeat balking is the most recent one and is suited to many practical situations as described in the introduction section. We incorporate the concept of defeat balking into a finite capacity Markovian single server queuing model with encourage and feedback. We derive the steady-state solution and perform the sensitivity analysis of the model.
