In this paper we generalize known workload decomposition results for L\'{e}vy queues with secondary jump inputs and queues with server vacations or service interruptions. Special cases are polling systems with either compound Poisson or…
In this paper, we analyze a two-queue random time-limited Markov modulated polling model. In the first part of the paper, we investigate the fluid version: Fluid arrives at the two queues as two independent flows with deterministic rate.…
We investigate the transient and stationary queue-length distributions of a class of service systems with correlated service times. The classical $M^X/G/1$ queue with semi-Markov service times is the most prominent example in this class and…
This article presents a new continuous-time modelling framework for multivariate time series of counts which have an infinitely divisible marginal distribution. The model is based on a mixed moving average process driven by L\'{e}vy noise -…
We present an example of a single-server polling system with two queues and an adaptive service policy where the stability region depends on the expected values of all the primitives and also on a certain exponential moment of the…
We consider a pair of coupled queues driven by independent spectrally-positive Levy processes. With respect to the bi-variate workload process this framework includes both the coupled processor model and the two-server fluid network with…
In this thesis, we propose and analyze a multi-server model that captures a performance trade-off between centralized and distributed processing. In our model, a fraction $p$ of an available resource is deployed in a centralized manner…
Polling systems have been widely studied, however most of these studies focus on polling systems with renewal processes for arrivals and random variables for service times. There is a need driven by practical applications to study polling…
We adapt the classical definition of locally stationary processes in discrete-time to the continuous-time setting and obtain equivalent representations in the time and frequency domain. From this, a unique time-varying spectral density is…
In this paper we study a queue with L\'evy input, without imposing any a priori assumption on the jumps being one-sided. The focus is on computing the transforms of all sorts of quantities related to the transient workload, assuming the…
The models studied in the steady state involve two queues which are served either by a single server whose speed depends on the number of jobs present, or by several parallel servers whose number may be controlled dynamically. Job service…
We study a model of a polling system, that is, a collection of $d$ queues with a single server that switches from queue to queue. The service time distribution and arrival rates change randomly every time a queue is emptied. This model is…
We study a many-server queuing system with general service time distribution and state dependent service rates. The dynamics of the system are modeled using measure valued processes which keep track of the residual service times. Under…
We study a queueing network with a strictly upper-triangular routing matrix, where each column contains at most one non-negative entry, and the root node receives input from a spectrally positive L\'{e}vy process. Our aim is to characterize…
We consider exponential single server queues with state-dependent arrival and service rates which evolve under influences of external environments. The transitions of the queues are influenced by the environment's state and the movements of…
We consider a polling system where a group of an infinite number of servers visits sequentially a set of queues. When visited, each queue is attended for a random time. Arrivals at each queue follow a Poisson process, and service time of…
A broad class of parallel server systems is considered, for which we prove the steady-state asymptotic independence of server workloads, as the number of servers goes to infinity, while the system load remains sub-critical. Arriving jobs…
In this paper we consider a single-server polling system with switch-over times. We introduce a new service discipline, mixed gated/exhaustive service, that can be used for queues with two types of customers: high and low priority…
Randomized load balancing networks arise in a variety of applications, and allow for efficient sharing of resources, while being relatively easy to implement. We consider a network of parallel queues in which incoming jobs with independent…
In this paper, we analyze a polling system on a circle with. Random batches of customers arrive at a circle, where each customer, independently, obtains a location according to a general distribution. A single server cyclically travels over…
