   <dc:description>We argue the importance both of developing simple sufficient&#xd;
conditions for the stability of general multiclass queueing &#xd;
networks and also of assessing such conditions under a range &#xd;
of assumptions on the weight of the traffic flowing between &#xd;
service stations. To achieve the former, we review a peak-rate &#xd;
stability condition and extend its range of application and &#xd;
for the latter, we introduce a generalisation of the Lu-Kumar &#xd;
network on which the stability condition may be tested for a &#xd;
range of traffic configurations. The peak-rate condition is &#xd;
close to exact when the between-station traffic is light, but &#xd;
degrades as this traffic increases.</dc:description>
