Electric vehicle (EV) public charging infrastructure planning faces significant challenges in competitive markets, where multiple service providers affect congestion and user behavior. This work extends existing modeling frameworks by…
We study a multi-server model with $n$ flexible servers and $n$ queues, connected through a bipartite graph, where the level of flexibility is captured by the graph's average degree, $d_n$. Applications in content replication in data…
Max-algebra models of tandem single-server queueing systems with both finite and infinite buffers are developed. The dynamics of each system is described by a linear vector state equation similar to those in the conventional linear systems…
We consider a model of Internet congestion control that represents the randomly varying number of flows present in a network where bandwidth is shared fairly between document transfers. We study critical fluid models obtained as formal…
We study a simple rate control scheme for a multiclass queuing network for which customers are partitioned into distinct flows that are queued separately at each station. The control scheme discards customers that arrive to the network…
Most of the early input-queued switch research focused on establishing throughput optimality of the max-weight scheduling policy, with some recent research showing that max-weight scheduling is optimal with respect to total expected delay…
Inspired by quantum switches, we consider a discrete-time multi-way matching system with two classes of arrivals: requests for entangled pair of qubits between two nodes, and qubits from each node that can be used to serve the requests. An…
We consider a discrete-time system comprising a first-come-first-served queue, a non-preemptive server, and a scheduler that governs the assignment of tasks in the queue to the server. The server has an availability state that indicates, at…
A single-server queuing model is considered with customers that have deadlines. If a customer's deadline elapses before service is offered, the customer abandons the system (customers do not abandon while being served). When the server…
Inspired by the work of Atar and Miyazawa [1] (2026) as well as applications to energy-saving problems, we are interested in the heavy-traffic limit of the stationary queue length distribution, which is not addressed in [1]. In this paper,…
We study a stochastic network that consists of a set of servers processing multiple classes of jobs. Each class of jobs requires a concurrent occupancy of several servers while being processed, and each server is shared among the job…
This is an expository review paper illustrating the ``martingale method'' for proving many-server heavy-traffic stochastic-process limits for queueing models, supporting diffusion-process approximations. Careful treatment is given to an…
We consider Markovian many-server systems with admission control operating in a QED regime, where the relative utilization approaches unity while the number of servers grows large, providing natural Economies-of-Scale. In order to determine…
We study randomized experiments in a service system when stochastic congestion can arise from temporarily limited supply or excess demand. Such congestion gives rise to cross-unit interference between the waiting customers, and analytic…
This paper considers a closed queueing network model of ridesharing systems such as Didi Chuxing, Lyft, and Uber. We focus on empty-car routing, a mechanism by which we control car flow in the network to optimize system-wide utility…
We consider a Markovian single server queue with impatient customers. There is a customer abandonment cost and a holding cost for customers in the system. We consider two versions of the problem. In the first version, customers pay a reward…
We consider the problem of selfish agents in discrete-time queuing systems, where competitive queues try to get their packets served. In this model, a queue gets to send a packet each step to one of the servers, which will attempt to serve…
We investigate an optimal scheduling problem in a discrete-time system of L parallel queues that are served by K identical, randomly connected servers. Each queue may be connected to a subset of the K servers during any given time slot.…
This paper studies the heavy-traffic (HT) behaviour of queueing networks with a single roving server. External customers arrive at the queues according to independent renewal processes and after completing service, a customer either leaves…
We consider the problem of customer equilibrium strategies in an M/M/1 queue under dynamic service control. The service rate switches between a low and a high value depending on system congestion. Arriving customers do not observe the…
