Design and Implementation of a Simulator for Performance Analysis of Queueing Systems with Working Vacation

Abstract

Overall, the working vacation model offers a balanced approach that combines the benefits of continuous service, reduced queue overflow, faster recovery, and flexibility in handling workload variations. By striking a balance between service provision and resource management, the model aims to optimize client satisfaction, minimize waiting times, and ensure efficient utilization of server resources. The research findings from the simulation experiments shed light on the advantages and drawbacks of the working vacation queue system compared to the traditional vacation queue. It is likely that the working vacation system demonstrated improved performance in certain scenarios due to its ability to handle low-intensity work periods effectively.
