ABSTRACT Motivated by applications in biological systems, we show for certain multiclass queueing networks that time-dependent distributions for the multiclass queuelengths can have a factorized form which reduces the problem of computing such distributions to a similar problem for related single-class queueing networks. We give an example of the application of this result to an enzymatic processing network.
