In [[queueing theory]], a discipline within the mathematical [[probability theory|theory of probability]], an '''M/D/c queue''' represents the queue length in a system having ''c'' servers, where arrivals are determined by a [[Poisson process]] and job service times are fixed (deterministic). The model name is written in [[Kendall's notation]].<ref>{{Cite journal | last1 = Kendall | first1 = D.
