Abstract

We present a simple semi-explicit formula for estimating the loss probability in a discrete-time GI/G/1/K system (with large K) which is operating under an overload condition. The method relaxes the lower boundary and then studies the upper boundary only. The idea is extended to the GI^X/G/1/K system.
