ABSTRACT
In this paper, we investigated a queuing model of fuzzy environment-based a
multiple channel queuing model (M/M/C) ( /FCFS) and study its performance under
realistic conditions. It applies a nonagonal fuzzy number to analyse the relevant
performance of a multiple channel queuing model (M/M/C) ( /FCFS). Based on the
sub interval average ranking method for nonagonal fuzzy number, we convert fuzzy
number to crisp one. Numerical results reveal that the efficiency of this method.
Intuitively, the fuzzy environment adapts well to a multiple channel queuing models
(M/M/C) ( /FCFS) are very well.
Key words: Multiple-Channel Queue Model, Nonagonal Fuzzy Number, Arithmetic
Operations, Ranking Procedure.

1. INTRODUCTION
Broadly speaking, a queuing system occurs any time ‘customers’ demand ‘service’ from some
facility; usually both the arrival of the customers and the service times are assumed to be
random. If all of the ‘servers’ are busy when new customers arrive, these will generally wait in
line for the next available server. In some examples, the terms ‘customer,’ ‘service’ and ‘server’
have the usual, everyday meaning. For instance, queuing systems occur when customers check
out in a grocery store, or require the service of a teller in a bank; here, the queuing term
‘customer’ refers to the actual customers at the store or the bank, the required service is to be
checked out or to resolve the bank inquiry they have, and if the server (the checkout person or
the teller) is busy when a customer require her service, then the customer has to wait in line,
that is, queue up for service. In general, the terms ‘customers,’ ‘service,’ and ‘servers’ are very
broad and can refer to almost anything; for instance, telephone calls (‘customers’) arriving at a
switchboard (the service time being the time each call needs to be completed), machine failures
(the ‘customer’ is the machine, and the server the repair person), demands of CPU time (server
is the CPU, and the service the completion of the task), etc. Sometimes, a ‘waiting line’ (real
or conceptual) never occurs. For instance, buses following their route can be considered a
queuing system in which the customers are the buses, and the service is the completion of the

A Multiple – Channel Queuing Models on Fuzzy Environment
route; here, customers are immediately ‘served’ and no waiting is necessary (technically,
infinite servers, or as many servers as the number of buses, are assumed). In many interesting
applications, customers require more than one service from different servers, and upon
completion of service in one node, they have to proceed to another node. If the new server is
busy, the customer has to queue up again for service. This is a typical situation modelled by the
so called networks of queues, which are not treated in this article. An example occurs when
patients enter an emergency department in a hospital: they might have to ‘queue up’ for primary
attention, x-rays, lab service, surgery, and so on.
Queues (and queuing networks) have become very useful tools for evaluating (at least
approximately) the performance of complex interacting stochastic systems in which congestion
occurs. Obvious applications occur in airport terminals, health-care centres, and check-out lines
at different counters. They have also been traditionally applied to biology (migration,
population models), electrical engineering (flow models) and chemistry (polymerization,
clustering) among others. The most prevalent applications of queuing systems and networks
occur in the fields of manufacturing, computer networking, and telecommunications and
broadcasting. But there are also many applications in the social sciences [1, 2].
The multichannel queuing system with ordered entry has been investigated by many
researchers. Queuing models have wide applications in service organizations as well as
manufacturing firms, in that various types of customers are serviced by various types of servers
according to specific queue disciplines [7]. Within the context of traditional queuing theory, the
inter-arrival times and service times arc required to follow certain distributions. However, in
many practical applications the arrival pattern and service pattern are more suitably described
by linguistic terms such: is fast, slow. Or moderate, rather than by probability distributions.
Restated, the inter-arrival times and service times arc more possibility than probabilistic, if the
usual crisp queues are extended to fuzzy queues [13], queuing models would have even wider
applications. Li and Lee [11] have derived analytical results for two fuzzy queuing systems
based on Zadeh's extension principle [21,22]. The possibility concept and fuzzy Markov chains
[17]. However, as commented by Negi and Lee [12]. Their approach is fairly complicated and
is generally unsuitable for computational purposes. Furthermore, for other more complicated
queuing systems, it is hardly possible to derive analytical results. Until now, numerous studies
have identified the properties of single [14] and multiple server queues [10,18] and proposed
applications.
In this paper we shall discussed definitions for fuzzy numbers and their arithmetic
operations and their ranking methods in section 2. These may be expected to meet the respective
needs in corresponding applications. In Section 3 we discussed Multiple Servers, Unlimited
Queue (M/M/C) ( /FCFS) Model. Our main purpose in this paper is to study Multiple Servers,
Unlimited Queue (M/M/C) (  /FCFS) Modelfor nonagonal fuzzy numbers by using the sub
interval average ranking method. Finally we study some numerical examples for this concept.
2. FUZZY NUMBER
2.1. Introduction
In normal experiences, expressions likes "about three" should only be used to suggest a real
number while in an ambiguous yet realistic way. If they are defined here at all, these expressions
become typically ill-defined. On either side, we really do have a different interpretation of the
expression "around three." Clearly, it would be immensely helpful if such hazy principles could
be made more specific and operational. To that end, well-defined mathematical notions that
embody the intuitive sense of the vague notions in a way that is acceptable for all can be
introduced.

Related issues occur in systems if inadequately instructions become frequently provided
with the goal for modifying another object by addition, subtraction, or multiplication. This type
of problem is encountered, for example, when designing a fuzzy controller. After that
interaction to Van Nauta Lemke (Group of Control Engineering, Department of Electrical
Engineering, Delft University of Technology, and Delft), the problem of identifying fuzzy
numbers and working for these new objects was emerged.
Zadeh [23] unveiled the principles of fuzzy numbers and fuzzy arithmetic. Until now,
numerous studies have identified the properties of fuzzy numbers [3,4,5,6,15,16] and proposed
applications [9, 19]. Each solution of fuzzy equations is difficult because addition and
multiplication of fuzzy numbers are noninvertible operations [8,20]. Here as result, this same
class including all fuzzy numbers is not a category that can be added or multiplied.
2.2. Definition (Fuzzy Number).
Let «

is said to be a fuzzy number
satisfies the following conditions:
• Convex fuzzy set.
• Normalized fuzzy set.
• Its membership function is piecewise continuous.
• It is defined in the real number.
Fuzzy number should be normalized and convex. Here the condition of normalization
implies that maximum membership value is 1.

3. MULTIPLE SERVERS, UNLIMITED QUEUE (M/M/C) ( /FCFS)
MODEL
The multi-channel queuing model deals with the condition that there are many service stations
in parallel and that every customer in the queue waiting is frequently served by more than one
station. An equivalent type of service is available for each service center to deliver. The 
arrival time and  service rate are both the mean values of Poisson and exponential distributions.
Let,

Figure 2 M/M/C (  /FCFS) Model
This method is the expansion of Model I. (M/M/1): (/FCSF). There are several servers in
parallel equivalent to c instead of one service channel. Customers are presumed to arrive at an

average arrival time for this queuing system and managed on each of C servers over an FCFS
basis. It's known that there is only one queue and that each server has the same mean running
volume. Thus, when n consumers inside the system, the total service rating obtained as

On the arrival rate and service rates are nonagonal fuzzy number. The arrival rate of
customers ( )
2,4,6,8,10,12,14,16,18 arrives in an ( )
1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 hour day. Each tax advisor
spends ( )
3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11 minutes on average on an arrival. If the arrivals are Poisson
distribution and services are exponential distribution, find the following:
1. The average numbers of customers a waiting service.
2. The system's average number of customers.
3. The average amount of time a consumer spends in the system.
4. The average length of a customer's waits.
5. The factor of utilization.
6. The probability that a customer would have to wait before receiving service.
7. The expected number of idle tax advisors at any given time.

5. CONCLUSION
This paper uses the nonagonal fuzzy number to predict and design the performance of multiple
– channel queuing models in a fuzzy environment. When arrival time and service times are
nonagonal fuzzy numbers, the sub-interval average method can be used to predict performance
activities such as average arrival length, average waiting time, etc. The sub-interval average
method is the most common and can be used to address nonagonal fuzzy number. This study
article suggests that multiple – channel queuing models can be easily described using a fuzzy
environment from a family with a fuzzy numbers and its basics. We have explained its
applicability through numerical examples.
