Abstract
We consider the coupling of a single server queue and a storage
model defined as a queue/store model. We establish that if the
input variables, arrivals at the queue and store, satisfy large
deviations principles and are linked through an
exponential tilting, then the output variables
(departures from each system) satisfy large deviations principles
with the same rate function.
