Abstract
A discrete time queue is studied with simultaneous service completions per time slot. By truncating the state space an approximate recursive solution is proposed. An explicit error bound for the accuracy of thi s truncation is derived. This error bound is of order rho(L), where rh o is the traffic load and L the truncation size.
