Some Further Consideration of Modeling Process at the Seaport Automobile Terminals

Abstract

In this paper we consider the loading processes at seaside link of Seaport automobile Automobile Terminal (SAT) as a bulk queuing model of the form M X g /D/1// s . We deduce the recursive equation for the steadystate probabilities concerning this queue model. Using this recursive equation, we obtain the explicit expressions for the steady-state probabilities with indices up to four. All these steady-state probabilities are expressed as a function on the utlization factor (  ) and the size of every arriving group at the ramp ( g ). Related numerical and graphical results are also presented. As applications, it is considered and discussed the modeling process at the SAT in the Port of Bar.
