Service times M/G/1 General independent Poisson arrivals at rate λ Service time has arbitrary distribution with given E[X] and E[X2] – Service times are independent and identically
Carrier Sense Multiple Access (CSMA) In certain situations nodes can hear each other by listening to the channel “Carrier Sensing” CSMA: Polite version of Aloha
An interesting property of an M/M/1 queue, which greatly simplifies combining these queues into a network, is the surprising fact that the output of an M/M/1 queue with arrival rate λ is a Poisson process of rate
When the receiver detects errors in a packet, how does it let the transmitter know to re-send the corresponding packet? Systems which automatically request the retransmission of missing
