N2 - For the Erlang loss system with s servers and offered load a, we show that: (i) the load carried by the last server is strictly increasing in a; (ii) the carried load of the whole system is strictly supermodular on {(s,a)|s=0,1,… and a>0}.
AB - For the Erlang loss system with s servers and offered load a, we show that: (i) the load carried by the last server is strictly increasing in a; (ii) the carried load of the whole system is strictly supermodular on {(s,a)|s=0,1,… and a>0}.
