In an M/M/1 queueing system, the number of arrivals in an interval of length \(T\) is a Poisson random variable (i.e. the probability of there being \(n\) arrivals in an interval of length \(T\) is \(\frac{e^{-\lambda T} (\lambda T)^n}{n!}\)). The probability density function \(f(t)\) of the inter-arrival time is given by
