Motivated by the problem of the coexistence on transmission links of telecommunication networks of elastic and unresponsive traffic, we study in this paper the impact on the busy period of an M/M/1 queue of a small perturbation in the…
This paper considers the mean waiting times in discrete-time preemptive-resume and nonpreemptive priority single-server queues fed by K independent batch Markovian arrival streams with geometrically distributed idle periods. While being…
In this paper we analyze an $M/M/1$ queueing system with an arbitrary number of customer classes, with class-dependent exponential service rates and preemptive priorities between classes. The queuing system can be described by a…
We introduce a model of information packet transport on networks in which the packets are posted by a given rate and move in parallel according to a local search algorithm. By performing a number of simulations we investigate the major…
Packet traffic in complex networks undergoes the jamming transition from free-flow to congested state as the number of packets in the system increases. Here we study such jamming transition when queues are operated by the priority queuing…
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…
Most input buffered packet switches internally segment variable-length packets into fixed-length cells. The last cell in a segmented packet will contain overhead bytes if the packet length is not evenly divisible by the cell length. Switch…
Approximations for the mean performance indices for the M/G/c queue rely on the approximate computation of the probability that an arriving request has to wait for service and of the minimum of residual service times if all servers are…
We consider the following distributed service model: jobs with unit mean, general distribution, and independent processing times arrive as a renewal process of rate $\lambda n$, with $0<\lambda<1$, and are immediately dispatched to one of…
We study message transport on a $1-d$ ring of nodes and randomly distributed hubs. Messages are deposited on the network at a constant rate. When the rate at which messages are deposited on the lattice is very high, messages start…
We consider an extension of the standard G/G/1 queue, described by the equation $W\stackrel{\mathcal{D}}{=}\max\{0, B-A+YW\}$, where $\mathbb{P}[Y=1]=p$ and $\mathbb{P}[Y=-1]=1-p$. For $p=1$ this model reduces to the classical Lindley…
This self-contained discussion relates the long-run average holding cost per unit time to the long-run average response time per customer in a $G/G/1$ queue with no assumption made on the order of service. The only restriction established…
The growth of Machine-Type Communication (MTC) increases the relevance of queuing scenarios with deterministic service times. In this letter, we present a model for queues without waiting lines and with degenerate service time distributions…
This paper deals with a single-server queue with modulated arrivals, service requirements and service capacity. In our first result, we derive the mean of the total workload assuming generally distributed service requirements and any…
We consider a switch operating under the MaxWeight scheduling algorithm, under any traffic pattern such that all the ports are loaded. This system is interesting to study since the queue lengths exhibit a multi-dimensional state-space…
The single server queue with multiple customer types and semi-Markovian service times, sometimes referred to as the $M/SM/1$ queue, has been well-studied since its introduction by Neuts in 1966. In this paper, we apply an extension of this…
Discrete-time queueing models find huge applications as they are used in modeling queueing systems arising in digital platforms like telecommunication systems, computer networks, etc. In this paper, we analyze an infinite-buffer queueing…
We consider the delay properties of max-weight opportunistic scheduling in a multi-user ON/OFF wireless system, such as a multi-user downlink or uplink. It is well known that max-weight scheduling stabilizes the network (and hence yields…
We investigate individual packet delay in a model of data networks with table-free, partial table and full table routing. We present analytical estimation for the average packet delay in a network with small partial routing table.…
Delay or queue length information has the potential to influence the decision of a customer to use a service system. Thus, it is imperative for service system managers to understand how the information that they provide will affect the…
