Based on queuing theory and the permutation probability method, this paper takes the typical venue security inspection scenario as the research background, constructs a quantitative indicator system of fairness and efficiency, and compares the functional differences among single-queue, parallel multi-queue, and branched queuing modes. The measurement results show that the branched queuing architecture can reduce the expected unfairness degree by about 67% while maintaining more than 95% of the service efficiency of parallel multi-queues, which effectively solves the efficiency-fairness trade-off dilemma of traditional modes. The research conclusions can provide theoretical reference and practical schemes for the design of queuing systems in public services, transportation hubs, and other multi-server scenarios.</abstract><keywords/></article-meta></front><body/><back><ref-list><ref id="B1" content-type="article"><label>1</label><element-citation publication-type="journal"><p>Liu D, Zhao QC, 2022, Research on Fair Scheduling Strategy of Multi-server Queuing System.
