TRAFFIC LIGHT QUEUES WITH DEPENDENT ARRIVALS AS A GENERALIZATION TO QUEUEING THEORY

THIS PAPER CONSIDERS A FIXED-CYCLE AND A SEMI-VEHICULAR- ACTUATED TRAFFIC LIGHT QUEUE WITH STRICTLY STATIONARY ARRIVALS AND INDEPENDENT AND IDENTICALLY DISTRIBUTED DEPARTURE HEADWAYS AND LOST TIMES. THESE QUEUES ARE REDUCED TO A GENERALIZED MODEL OF LOYNES AND SUFFICIENT CONDITIONS ARE DERIVED UNDER WHICH THESE QUEUES HAVE STATIONARY DISTRIBUTIONS. TWO TYPICAL EXAMPLES OF SEMI-VEHICULAR- ACTUATED TRAFFIC LIGHT QUEUES ARE DISCUSSED. /AUTHOR/
