Abstract: A simple technique for computing mean performance measures of closed single-class fork-join networks with exponential service time distribution is given here. This technique is similar to the mean value analysis technique for closed product-form networks and iterates on the number of customers in the network. Mean performance measures like the mean response times, queue lengths, and throughput of closed fork-join networks can be computed recursively without calculating the steady-state... (Update)
