Abstract
In this paper we consider the problem of finding the optimal order for two servers in series when there is no queue capacity. We show that it is better for the faster server to be first. The strength of this conclusion will depend on the strength of the assumption made about the service distribution. We also find the optimal order for some systems where both servers have the same average service time and different service distributions.
