Abstract

We consider a finite buffer fluid queue receiving its input from the output of a Markovian queue with finite or infinite waiting room. The input flow into the fluid queue is thus characterized by a Markov modulated input rate process and we derive, for a wide class of such input processes, a procedure for the computation of the stationary buffer content of the fluid queue and the stationary overflow probability. This approach leads to a numerically stable algorithm for which the precision of the result can be specified in advance.
