Asymptotic analysis of queues in multiple-access computer networks

The paper considers local-area computer networks with a protocol that supports carrier-sense multiple access with instantaneous conflict detection and is a generalization of slotted ALOHA. An approach based on recurrent processes is applied to analyze the asymptotic behavior of the number of waiting calls under conditions of low retrial rate.Translated from Kibernetika i Sistemnyi Analiz, No. 4, pp. 54–61, July–August, 1991.
