Abstract

In this paper we consider a limited capacity Markovian queueing system with two heterogeneous servers subjected to varying catastrophic intensity. The transient solution of the model has been obtained and various measures of performance have been computed numerically with the help of simulation technique. The steady state solution of the system has also been provided.
