We consider the problem of inference for non-stationary time series with heavy-tailed error distribution. Under a time-varying linear process framework we show that there exists a suitable local approximation by a stationary process with…
In parallel-server systems with a single stream of arrivals (a.k.a. load balancing), Join-the-Shortest-Queue (JSQ) is a popular routing algorithm. There is extensive literature studying this system in various asymptotic regimes, but all…
We consider the model of a token-based joint auto-scaling and load balancing strategy, proposed in a recent paper by Mukherjee, Dhara, Borst, and van Leeuwaarden (SIGMETRICS '17, arXiv:1703.08373), which offers an efficient scalable…
We consider queueing systems with n parallel queues under a Join the Shortest Queue (JSQ) policy in the Halfin-Whitt heavy traffic regime. We use the martingale method to prove that a scaled process counting the number of idle servers and…
In queueing systems, effective scheduling algorithms are essential for optimizing performance. Optimal scheduling for the M/G/k queue has been explored in the heavy traffic limit, but much remains unknown in the intermediate load regime. In…
This paper concerns the recurrence structure of the infinite server queue, as viewed through the prism of the maximum dater sequence, namely the time to drain the current work in the system as seen at arrival epochs. Despite the importance…
A mean-field extension of the queueing system \(GI/GI/1\) is considered. The process is constructed as a Markov solution of a martingale problem. Uniqueness in distribution is established under a bit different sets of assumptions on…
We consider a single server queue which has a threshold to change its arrival process and service speed by its queue length, which is referred to as a two-level single server queue. This model is motivated by an energy saving problem for a…
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…
The Join-the-Shortest-Queue (JSQ) load-balancing scheme is known to minimise the average delay of jobs in homogeneous systems consisting of identical servers. However, it performs poorly in heterogeneous systems where servers have different…
We consider a stationary Markov process that models certain queues with a bulk service of a fixed number $m$ of admitted customers. We find an integral expression of its transition probability function in terms of certain multi-orthogonal…
For a GI/GI/1 queue, we show that the average sojourn time under the (blind) Randomized Multilevel Feedback algorithm is no worse than that under the Shortest Remaining Processing Time algorithm times a logarithmic function of the system…
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…
We present the explicit construction of a stable queue with several servers and impatient customers, under stationary ergodic assumptions. Using a stochastic comparison of the (multivariate) workload sequence with two monotonic stochastic…
This paper studies a continuous-time joint sampling-and-preemption problem, incorporating sampling and preemption penalties under general service-time distributions. We formulate the system as an impulse-controlled piecewise-deterministic…
This paper studies the heavy-traffic asymptotics for the multiclass FIFO M${}^X$/G/1 queue. We first derive the probability generating function of the joint queue length distribution. Using the probability generating function, we then…
In many different settings, requests for service can arrive in near or true simultaneity with one another. This creates batches of arrivals to the underlying queueing system. In this paper, we study the staffing problem for the batch…
