Cohen further analyzed in 1998 a non-symmetric 2-queue Markovian system, where newly arriving customers follow the Join the Shortest Queue (JSQ) discipline. The current paper generalizes and extends Cohen’s works by studying a combined JSQ–SLQ model, and by broadening the scope of analysis to a non-symmetric 3-queue system, where arriving customers follow the JSQ strategy and a single server exercises the preemptive priority SLQ discipline. The system states’ multi-dimensional probability distribution function is derived while applying a non-conventional representation of the underlying process’s state-space. The analysis combines both </span>Probability Generating Functions<span> and Matrix Geometric methodologies.
