Abstract:
In this thesis the queueing-inventory models considered are analyzed
as continuous time Markov chains in which we use the tools such as matrix
analytic methods. We obtain the steady-state distributions of various
queueing-inventory models in product form under the assumption that no
customer joins the system when the inventory level is zero. This is despite
the strong correlation between the number of customers joining the system
and the inventory level during lead time. The resulting quasi-birth-anddeath
(QBD) processes are solved explicitly by matrix geometric methods
