Consider the M/G/1 model.
(a) Compare the expected waiting time in the queue if the servicetime distribution is (i) exponential, (ii) constant, (iii) Erlang with the amount of variation (i.e., the standard deviation) halfway between the constant and exponential cases.
(b) What is the effect on the expected waiting time in the queue and on the expected queue length if both λ and μ are doubled and the scale of the service-time distribution is changed accordingly?
