An approximation algorithm has been obtained to analyze the network of single server tandem queues with a finite length. In the queueing network with a finite queue length, the blocking which is mutually dependent, occure due to the limitation of the queue length. Thus, it is difficults to analyze such a queueing network. In this paper each queue has been regarded as the independent M/M/1/K system to analyze the queueing network with the blocking, which is based on the assumption that an arrival rate to the present station is increased by the blocking of the following stations. The performance measures, such as state probability, average queue length and tha waiting time, can be easily obtained using the proposed algorithm. In order to justify this approximation algorithm, comparison of the results of this algorithm with those of state transition simultaneous equations has been made an verified with computer simulation.
