Abstract
In this paper, we describe an elementary combinatorial approach for deriving the waiting and response time distributions in a few classical priority queueing models. By making use of lattice paths that are linked in a natural way to the stochastic processes analyzed, the proposed method offers new insights and complements the results previously obtained by inverting the associated Laplace transforms.
