%P 1-6 %T Process-algebraic modelling of priority queueing networks %A Giuliano Casale %A Mirco Tribastone %X We consider a closed multiclass queueing network model in which each class receives a different priority level and jobs with lower priority are served only if there are no higher-priority jobs in the queue. Such systems do not enjoy a product form solution, thus their analysis is typically carried out through approximate mean value analysis (AMVA) techniques. We formalise the problem in PEPA in a way amenable to differential analysis. Experimental results show that our approach is competitive with simulation and AMVA methods. %D 2010 %L eprints2557 %C London, UK
