In this paper an algorithm is provided to approximate the tandem behav
iour of a finite-capacity G/M/1 queueing system, each with a generally
distributed interarrival time, a single markovian processor, the firs
t-come-first-served queueing discipline, and an instantaneous Beroulli
feedback mechanism. In a queueing system with such a feedback mechani
sm, a fraction of the departing units will instantly merge with the in
coming arrival units to be reprocessed again. Furthermore, approximati
on results are compared with those from a simulation algorithm.
