Recent development of peer-to-peer (P2P) services (e.g. streaming, file sharing, and storage) systems introduces a new type of queue systems that receive little attention before, where both job and server arrive and depart randomly. Current…

This work introduces the join the shortest queue policy in the retrial setting. We consider a Markovian single server retrial system with two infinite capacity orbits. An arriving job finding the server busy, it is forwarded to the least…

A many-server heavy-traffic FCLT is proved for the $G_t/M/s_t+\mathit {GI}$ queueing model, having time-varying arrival rate and staffing, a general arrival process satisfying a FCLT, exponential service times and customer abandonment…

We study a queueing network with a strictly upper-triangular routing matrix, where each column contains at most one non-negative entry, and the root node receives input from a spectrally positive L\'{e}vy process. Our aim is to characterize…

In this paper, we analyze the performance of random load resampling and migration strategies in parallel server systems. Clients initially attach to an arbitrary server, but may switch server independently at random instants of time in an…

We consider N single server infinite buffer queues with service rate beta. Customers arrive at rate N times alpha,choose L queues uniformly, and join the shortest one. The stability condition is alpha strictly less than beta. We study in…

We prove that the scaled maximum steady-state waiting time and the scaled maximum steady-state queue length among $N$ $GI/GI/1$-queues in the $N$-server fork-join queue, converge to a normally distributed random variable as $N\to\infty$.…

We consider processing networks where multiple dispatchers are connected to single-server queues by a bipartite compatibility graph, modeling constraints that are common in data centers and cloud networks due to geographic reasons or data…

We study distributed load balancing in bipartite queueing systems where frontends route jobs to heterogeneous backends with workload-dependent service rates. The system's connectivity -- governed by compatibility constraints such as data…
