| Abstract: |
We analyze a double-sided queue with priority that serves patient customers and customers with zero patience (i.e., impatient customers). In a two-sided market, high and low priority customers arrive to one side and match with queued customers on the opposite side. Impatient customers match with queued patient customers; when there is no queue, they leave the system unmatched. All arrivals follow independent Poisson processes. We derive exact formulae for the stationary queue length distribution and several steady-state performance measures. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
