Traveling times in a FIFO-stochastic event graph are compared in increasing convex ordering for different arrival processes. As a special case, a stochastic lower bound is obtained for the sojourn time in a tandem network of FIFO queues with a Markov arrival process. A counterexample shows that the extended Ross conjecture is not true for discrete-time arrival processes.
