Resorting to Markov chain embedding, we address the time-dependent and limit analysis of the number of customers in the system at batch prearrivals and seen by customers at their arrival to the system. These results are then used to derive the continuous-time limit distribution of the number of customers in the system. In addition, we provide some numerical examples that illustrate our approach.engoscillating GIX/M(m)//N systemsqueueing systemsMarkov chain embeddingAnalysis of finite oscillating GIX/M(m)//N queueing systemsbook part10.1142/9789812791672_0007
