    Abstract

    The performance of state-independent changes-of-measure for estimating the overflow probability of the total population of a two-node Markovian tandem queue using importance sampling is studied. It is shown that only the change of measure proposed by Parekh and Walrand (1989) can be asymptotically efficient for large overflow levels. The behaviour of this change of measure all over the parameter space is categorized, using both analysis and numerical calculation.
