We consider a line of terminals which is connected by packet erasure channels and where random linear network coding is carried out at each node prior to transmission. In particular, we address an online approach in which each terminal has…
We analyze a boarding solution for a transport system in which the number of passengers allowed to enter a transport cabin is automatically controlled. Expressions charac- terizing the stochastic properties of the passenger queue length,…
This paper proposes a stochastic framework to evaluate the performance of public transit systems under short random service suspensions. We aim to derive closed-form formulations of the mean and variance of the queue length and waiting…
When the arrival processes are Poisson, queueing networks are well-understood in terms of the product-form structure of the number of jobs $N_i$ at the individual queues; much less is known about the waiting time $W$ across the whole…
Motivated by application in wireless networks, cloud computing, data centers etc, Stochastic Processing Networks have been studied in the literature under various asymptotic regimes. In the heavy-traffic regime, the steady state mean queue…
Gaitonde and Tardos recently studied a model of queueing networks where queues compete for servers and re-send returned packets in future rounds. They quantify the amount of additional processing power that guarantees a decentralized…
In heterogeneous networks (HetNets), load balancing among different tiers can be effectively achieved by a biased user association scheme with which each user chooses to associate with one base station (BS) based on the biased received…
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…

Understanding the detailed queueing behavior of a networking session is critical in enabling low-latency services over the Internet. Especially when the packet arrival and service rates at the queue of a link vary over time and moreover…
We consider a dynamic system with multiple types of customers and servers. Each type of waiting customer or server joins a separate queue, forming a bipartite graph with customer-side queues and server-side queues. The platform can match…
In this paper, we present a stability criterion for Processor Sharing queues, in which the throughput may depend on the number of customers in the system (in such cases such as interferences between the users). Such a system is represented…
We study the load balancing system operating under Join the Shortest Queue (JSQ) in the many-server heavy-traffic regime. If $N$ is the number of servers, we let the difference between the total service rate and the total arrival rate be…

In this paper, we consider a new queueing model where queues balance themselves according to a mean field interaction with a time delay. Unlike other work with delayed information our model considers multi-server queues with customer…
