Some of these examples may show the adjective use. To incorporate the customers' impatience in the queuing model, we use a balking rule corresponding to the balking example given earlier. The model with reneging customers can be analyzed via a closely related vqt-based balking model. Let r be the probability that a customer balks or the balking rate. It is possible to derive the relationship between the performance measures of the reneging model and the vqt-equivalent balking model. The balking model and the reneging model do differ in the number of customers and workload in the system. Two common modes in which customers display their impatience are balking and reneging. The reneging behavior results in a greater number of customers and greater workload in the system than balking behavior. From this observation, one can further consider the model that incorporates a mixture of balking and reneging as well. It is clear that the balking interpretation is advantageous in analytical study. Before stating the balking rule, we define the virtual queuing time (vqt) in the system. They cannot be resolved by balking the issue of the national audit office.
