Stability of a simple re-entrant line with infinite supply of work - The case of exponential processing times

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

We consider a two machine 3 step re-entrant line, with an infinite supply of work. We assume that processing times are exponentially distributed. We show that this system is stable under LBFS priority policy.
