| Abstract: | A simple, deterministic queueing system with feedback, which exhibits the phenomena of sustained oscillation, mode locking, quasi-periodic behaviour and chaos is considered in this article. This implies that a fully deterministic queueing system can exhibit seemingly unpredictable behaviour. Variability is ignored, and to forms of feedback are focused on: 1) the service rate increases as queue length increases and 2) the arrival rate depends on customers' perception of past waiting times. A customer's decision is modeled to seek service as a two-stage process: 1) deciding whether or not to use a facility and 2) deciding the frequency of visit. |
