FAST SIMULATION OF THE CUSTOMER BLOCKING PROBABILITY
IN QUEUEING NETWORKS WITH MULTICAST ACCESS
Abstract. A model of a queuing network with several input Poisson flows is considered.
These flows require connections between given terminals. The connection path depends on the type of the customer,
on the requested resource, on the paths currently occupied and on the load on all communication channels of the network.
A fast simulation method for the evaluation of the blocking probability for customers of the certain flow with a required resource
not lower than a given one is proposed.
Keywords: queueing network, multicast access, blocking probability, Monte Carlo method, stratified sampling, fast simulation method, variance of estimate.
