Abstract
Queuing models in which the units emanate from at least one finite population, to which it returns after getting service are termed finite-source queuing models. The simplest model of this type has application to the machine interference problem. Previous work on this model is reviewed and the solution is discussed in detail by the use of the supplementary variable technique and renewal theory. Some generalizations are discussed and problems for further work are pointed out.
