We study tandem queueing systems in which servers work more efficiently in teams than on their own and customers are impatient in that they may leave the system while waiting for service. Our goal is to determine the server assignment…
When multiple users share the same resource for physical layer cooperation such as relay terminals in their vicinities, this shared resource may not be always available for every user, and it is critical for transmitting terminals to know…
We introduce the first class of perfect sampling algorithms for the steady-state distribution of multi-server queues with general interarrival time and service time distributions. Our algorithm is built on the classical dominated coupling…
We provide upper bounds on the end-to-end backlog and delay in a network with heavy-tailed and self-similar traffic. The analysis follows a network calculus approach where traffic is characterized by envelope functions and service is…
We consider the $\Delta_{(i)}/G/1$ queue, in which a a total of $n$ customers independently demand service after an exponential time. We focus on the case of heavy-tailed service times, and assume that the tail of the service time…
In this paper, we consider the number of both arrivals and departures seen by a tagged customer while in service in a classical $M/M/1$ processor sharing queue. By exploiting the underlying orthogonal structure of this queuing system…
We consider a discrete time parallel queue, which is two-queue network, where at each time-slot there is a the same batch arrival to both queues and at each queue there is a random service available. The service law at each time-slot for…
Recent studies indicate that in many situations service times are affected by the experienced queueing delay of the particular customer. This effect has been detected in different areas, such as health care, call centers and…
In this paper we study the maximum queue length $M$ (in terms of the number of customers present) in a busy cycle in the M/G/1 queue. Assume that the service times have a logconvex density. For such (heavy-tailed) service-time distributions…
We obtain asymptotic bounds for the tail distribution of steady-state waiting time in a two server queue where each server processes incoming jobs at a rate equal to the rate of their arrivals (that is, the half-loaded regime). The job…
Giving customers queue length information about a service system has the potential to influence the decision of a customer to join a queue. Thus, it is imperative for managers of queueing systems to understand how the information that they…
Serial and parallel algorithms for simulation of tandem queueing systems with infinite buffers are presented, and their performance is examined. It is shown that the algorithms which are based on a simple computational procedure involve low…
A FORTRAN program to simulate the operation of infinite servers queues is presented in this work. Poisson arrivals processes are considered but not only. For many parameters of interest in queuing systems study or application, either there…
We study a passenger-taxi double-ended queue with impatient passengers and two-point matching time in this paper. The system considered in this paper is different from those considered in the existing literature, which fully considers the…
Let $Q_{\lambda}(t,y) $ be the number of people present at time $t$ with $y$ units of remaining service time in an infinite server system with arrival rate equal to $\lambda>0$. In the presence of a non-lattice renewal arrival process and…
In this paper, the asymptotic behaviour of the distribution tail of the stationary waiting time $W$ in the $GI/GI/2$ FCFS queue is studied. Under subexponential-type assumptions on the service time distribution, bounds and sharp asymptotics…
We consider a model describing the waiting time of a server alternating between two service points. This model is described by a Lindley-type equation. We are interested in the time-dependent behaviour of this system and derive explicit…
We study a queueing network with a single shared server that serves the queues in a cyclic order. External customers arrive at the queues according to independent Poisson processes. After completing service, a customer either leaves the…
Let $X$ be the constrained random walk on ${\mathbb Z}_+^2$ with increments $(1,0)$, $(-1,0)$, $(0,1)$ and $(0,-1)$; $X$ represents, at arrivals and service completions, the lengths of two queues working in parallel whose service and…
We consider a single-server GI/GI/1 queueing system with feedback. We assume the service times distribution to be (intermediate) regularly varying. We find the tail asymptotics for a customer's sojourn time in two regimes: the customer…
