Abstract :
The author discusses polling systems with single message queues and asymmetric exponential arrivals. A simple method is presented to obtain both an upper bound on the cycle length and an approximation to the expected message delay of these polling systems. Numerical examples show that the approximation obtains results which are very close to the simulation results
