Abstract

We consider a multi-server queueing system with a visible queue and an arrival flow that is dynamically dependent on the system’s rating. This rating reflects the level of customer satisfaction with the quality and price of the provided service. A higher rating implies a higher arrival rate, which motivates the service provider to increase the price of the service. A steady-state analysis of this system using the proposed mechanism for changing the rating and a threshold strategy for changing the price is performed. This is carried out via the consideration of a suitably constructed multidimensional Markov chain. The impact of the variation in the threshold defining the strategy for changing the price on the key performance indicators is numerically illustrated. The results can be used to make managerial decisions, leading to an increase in the effectiveness of system operations.
