   <dcterms:abstract>This paper analyses a discrete-time Geo/G/1 retrial queue with general retrial times in which&#xd;
the arriving customers may opt to follow a LCFS-PR discipline or to join the orbit where it is&#xd;
contemplated the movement of jobs, customers, etc., from one place to another. The Markov&#xd;
chain underlying the system has been studied, the generating functions of the number of&#xd;
customers in the orbit and in the system as well as their expected values are derived. The&#xd;
stochastic decomposition law and, as an application, bounds for the proximity between the&#xd;
steady-state distribution for the system under study and its corresponding standard system&#xd;
has been derived. Recursive formulae for calculating the steady-state distributions of the orbit&#xd;
and system size have been developed. Besides, it has proved that the M/G/1 continuous-time&#xd;
version of the studied model can be approximated by the discrete-time system considered.&#xd;
A complete study of the sojourn time of a customer in the server, the orbit and the&#xd;
system has been carried out. Numerical examples to illustrate the effect of the most signiffcant&#xd;
parameters of the system on several performance characteristics are given. Finally, a section&#xd;
of conclusions and research results is presented.</dcterms:abstract>
