This work studies queues in a Euclidean space. Consider $N$ servers that are distributed uniformly in $[0,1]^d$. Customers arrive at the servers according to independent stationary processes. Upon arrival, they probabilistically decide…
In this paper we consider a single-server, cyclic polling system with switch-over times. A distinguishing feature of the model is that the rates of the Poisson arrival processes at the various queues depend on the server location. For this…
We consider a connection-level model proposed by Massouli\'{e} and Roberts for bandwidth sharing among file transfer flows in a communication network. We study weighted proportionally fair sharing policies and establish explicit-form bounds…
Consider a network of $n$ single-server queues where tasks arrive independently at each server at rate $\lambda_n$. The servers are connected by a graph that is resampled at rate $\mu_n$ in a way that is symmetric with respect to the…
Atar and Miyazawa recently introduced a single server queue with queue length dependent arrival and service processes, and name it a multi-level queue. They prove that the heavy traffic limit of its queue length process weakly converges to…
In this paper, we develop a stochastic algorithm based on Euler-Maruyama scheme to approximate the invariant measure of the limiting multidimensional diffusion of the $M/Ph/n+M$ queue. Specifically, we prove a non-asymptotic error bound…
In this paper we analyze a single server queue with batch arrivals and semi-Markovian service times. We also include the feature that the first service of each busy period might have a different distribution than subsequent service times.…
In this paper, we consider the occupancy distribution for an open network of infinite server queues with multivariate batch arrivals following a non-homogeneous Poisson process, and general service time distributions. We derive a…
We use multidimensional diffusion processes to approximate the dynamics of a queue served by many parallel servers. The queue is served in the first-in-first-out (FIFO) order and the customers waiting in queue may abandon the system without…
In join the shortest queue networks, incoming jobs are assigned to the shortest queue from among a randomly chosen subset of $D$ queues, in a system of $N$ queues; after completion of service at its queue, a job leaves the network. We also…
We prove several results about the rate of convergence to stationarity, that is, the spectral gap, for the M/M/n queue in the Halfin-Whitt regime. We identify the limiting rate of convergence to steady-state, and discover an asymptotic…
In the context of load balancing, Lu et al. introduced the distributed Join-Idle-Queue algorithm, where a group of dispatchers distribute jobs to a cluster of parallel servers. Each dispatcher maintains a queue of idle servers; when a job…
We introduce a framework and develop a theory of transitory queueing models. These are models that are not only non-stationary and time-varying but also have other features such as the queueing system operates over finite time, or only a…
Out-of-equilibrium quasistationary states (QSSs) are one of the signatures of a broken ergodicity in long-range interacting systems. For the widely studied Hamiltonian Mean-Field model, the lifetime of some QSSs has been shown to diverge…
We investigate the steady-state diffusion-approximation error for continuous-time queueing systems with generally distributed primitives. Across four canonical systems -- the $G/G/1$ and $G/M/\infty$ queues, the join-the-shortest-queue…
Load balancing plays a crucial role in many large scale systems. Several different load balancing principles have been proposed in the literature, such as Join-Shortest-Queue (JSQ) and its variations, or Join-Below-Threshold. We provide a…
We consider a hybrid diffusion process that is a combination of two Ornstein-Uhlenbeck processes with different restraining forces. This process serves as the heavy-traffic approximation to the Markovian many-server queue with abandonments…
The Join-the-Shortest-Queue-d routing policy is considered for a large system with $n$ servers. Moderate deviation principles (MDP) for the occupancy process and the empirical queue length process are established as $n\to \infty$. Each MDP…
In this paper, we study optimal control problems for multiclass GI/M/n+M queues in an alternating renewal (up-down) random environment in the Halfin-Whitt regime. Assuming that the downtimes are asymptotically negligible and only the…
The Poisson-Nernst-Planck (PNP) diffusional model for the immittance or impedance spectroscopy response of an electrolytic cell in a finite-length situation is extended to a general framework. In this new formalism, the bulk behavior of the…
