Customer impatience has a very negative impact on the queuing system under
investigation. If we talk from business point of view, the firms lose their potential
customers due to customer impatience, which affects their business as a whole. If the
firms employ certain customer retention strategies, then there are chances that a certain
fraction of impatient customers can be retained in the queuing system. A reneged
customer may be convinced to stay in the queuing system for his further service with
some probability, say q and he may abandon the queue without receiving the service
with a probability ( 1 )p q= − . A finite waiting space Markovian single-server queuing
model with discouraged arrivals, reneging and retention of reneged customers is studied.
The steady state solution of the model is derived iteratively. The measures of
effectiveness of the queuing model are also obtained. Some important queuing models
are derived as special cases of this model.
