A queueing process with the possibility of customers becoming servers

A new queueing system called G/G/{p} is introduced and studied. In this queue, unlike standard queues, the customers after being served are allowed to become servers themselves. More precisely, at the completion of his service each customer is assumed to become a server with probability p or leave the system with probability 1 . p, independent of everything else. We make some comparisons about the waiting times and queue sizes among different queueing systems. We also study the joint distribution of the queue size, the number of servers and the number of departures at time t for exact and asymptotic behavior for large t.
