Abstract

This paper is devoted to modelling and simulation of a Markov multi-server queueing system subject to breakdowns and with an ample repair capacity, the system do not form the queue of waiting customers. The paper introduces a mathematical model of the studied system and a simulation model created by using software CPN Tools. At the end of the paper the outcomes which were reached by both approaches will be shown and statistically evaluated.
