Abstract
Abstract: This paper computes new measures of performance in Markovian queueing model with single-server and
finite system capacity. The expected value and the variance of the minimum (maximum) number of customers in the
system (queue) as well as the r th moments of the minimum (maximum) waiting time in the queue are derived. The
computations of the proposed measures are depending on the methods of order statistics. The regular performance
measures of the M/M/1/N model are considered as special cases of our results.
