Abstract
We consider a G-network with Poisson flow of positive customers. Each positive customer entering the network is characterized by a set of stochastic parameters: customer route, the length of customer route, customer volume and his service length at each route stage as well. The following node types are considered: Negative customers arriving at each node also form a Poisson flow. A negative customer entering a node with k customers in service, with probability 1/k chooses one of served positive customer as a "target". Then, if the node is of a type 0 the negative customer immediately "kills" (displaces from the network) the target customer, and if the node is of types 1-3 the negative customer with given probability depending on parameters of the target customer route kills this customer and with complementary probability he quits the network with no service. A product form for the stationary probabilities of underlying Markov process is obtained.

What is OpenURL?

The OpenURL standard is a protocol for transmission of metadata describing the resource that you wish to access. An OpenURL link contains article metadata and directs it to the OpenURL server of your choice. The OpenURL server can provide access to the resource and also offer complementary services (specific search engine, export of references...). The OpenURL link can be generated by different means.
  • If your librarian has set up your subscription with an OpenURL resolver, OpenURL links appear automatically on the abstract pages.
  • You can define your own OpenURL resolver with your EDPS Account. In this case your choice will be given priority over that of your library.
  • You can use an add-on for your browser (Firefox or I.E.) to display OpenURL links on a page (see http://www.openly.com/openurlref/). You should disable this module if you wish to use the OpenURL server that you or your library have defined.
