Another Indian influence was an approximate formula used for timekeeping by Muslim astronomers.
An approximate formula can be used to calculate the response time distribution for a network of fork-join queues joined in series (one after the other).
The focus is usually on developing approximate formulas for counting these objects in various contexts.
Another approximate formula by Eggleton is as follows:
