摘要：
This paper considers tandem queues with finite buffers. Throughput values for the cases of independent and dependent service are compared, where in the dependent case a given customer has the same service time at each station. It is shown that for sufficiently large buffer sizes, dependent throughput is greater than independent. Simulation results that demonstrate this phenomenon are given.
