Queuing models provide insight into the temporal inhomogeneity of human dynamics, characterized by the broad distribution of waiting times of individuals performing tasks. We study the queuing model of an agent trying to execute a task of…
We introduce the {\Delta}(i)/GI/1 queue, a new queueing model. In this model, customers from a given population independently sample a time to arrive from some given distribution F. Thus, the arrival times are an ordered statistics, and the…
In this paper we consider the problem of maximum throughput for tandem queueing system. We modeled this system as a Quasi-Birth-Death process. In order to do this we named level the number of customers waiting in the first buffer (including…
We analyze stability of consensus algorithms in networks of multi-agents with time-varying topologies and delays. The topology and delays are modeled as induced by an adapted process and are rather general, including i.i.d.\ topology…
We study tandem queueing systems in which servers work more efficiently in teams than on their own and customers are impatient in that they may leave the system while waiting for service. Our goal is to determine the server assignment…
Network calculus is a min-plus system theory for performance evaluation of queuing networks. Its elegance stems from intuitive convolution formulas for concatenation of deterministic servers. Recent research dispenses with the worst-case…
We introduce a framework for the modeling of sequential data capturing pathways of varying lengths observed in a network. Such data are important, e.g., when studying click streams in information networks, travel patterns in transportation…
Multi-server queueing systems are widely used models for job scheduling in machine learning, wireless networks, crowdsourcing, and healthcare systems. This paper considers a multi-server system with multiple servers and multiple types of…
In this paper, we consider the number of both arrivals and departures seen by a tagged customer while in service in a classical $M/M/1$ processor sharing queue. By exploiting the underlying orthogonal structure of this queuing system…
We consider a stochastic, dynamic job scheduling problem, formulated as a queueing control problem, in which a single server processes jobs of different types that arrive according to independent Poisson processes. The problem is defined on…

We consider an acyclic network of single-server queues with heterogeneous processing rates. It is assumed that each queue is fed by the superposition of a large number of i.i.d. Gaussian processes with stationary increments and positive…
In mobile edge computing (MEC) networks, mobile users generate diverse machine learning tasks dynamically over time. These tasks are typically offloaded to the nearest available edge server, by considering communication and computational…
A service system with multiple types of customers, arriving as Poisson processes, is considered. The system has infinite number of servers, ranked by $1,2,3, \ldots$; a server rank is its ``location." Each customer has an independent…
We analyze the behavior of closed product-form queueing networks when the number of customers grows to infinity and remains proportionate on each route (or class). First, we focus on the stationary behavior and prove the conjecture that the…
A classical result for the steady-state queue-length distribution of single-class queueing systems is the following: the distribution of the queue length just before an arrival epoch equals the distribution of the queue length just after a…
We consider a one-dimensional stochastic reaction-diffusion generalizing the totally asymmetric simple exclusion process, and aiming at describing single lane roads with vehicles that can change speed. To each particle is associated a jump…
In traditional priority queues, we assume that every customer upon arrival has a fixed, class-dependent priority, and that a customer may not commence service if a customer with a higher priority is present in the queue. However, in…
This paper surveys the message brokers that are in vogue today for distributed communication. Their primary goal is to facilitate the construction of decentralized topologies without single points of failure, enabling fault tolerance and…
A graph-theoretic analysis of the steady-state behavior of an open Jackson queueing network is developed. In particular, a number of queueing-network performance metrics are shown to exhibit a spatial dependence on local drivers (e.g.…
