The Join-the-Shortest Queue (JSQ) policy is a classical benchmark for the performance of many-server queueing systems due to its strong optimality properties. While the exact analysis of the JSQ policy is an open question to date, even…
The time-critical industrial applications pose intense demands for enabling long-distance deterministic networks. However, previous priority-based and weight-based scheduling methods focus on probabilistically reducing average delay, which…
We investigate a processor sharing queue with renewal arrivals and generally distributed service times. Impatient jobs may abandon the queue, or renege, before completing service. The corresponding stochastic processes are represented by…
A simple analytical solution is proposed for the stationary loss system of two parallel queues with finite capacity $K$, in which new customers join the shortest queue, or one of the two with equal probability if their lengths are equal.…
We analyze the so-called Shortest Queue First (SQF) queueing discipline whereby a unique server addresses queues in parallel by serving at any time that queue with the smallest workload. Considering a stationary system composed of two…
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…

The Join-the-Shortest-Queue routing policy is studied in an asymptotic regime where the number of processors $n$ scales with the arrival rate. A large deviation principle (LDP) for the occupancy process is established, as $n\to \infty$, in…
We show that the steady-state distribution of the join-the-shortest-queue (JSQ) system converges, in the Halfin-Whitt regime, to its diffusion limit at a rate of at least $1/\sqrt{n}$, where $n$ is the number of servers. Our proof uses…

Nowadays, the efficiency and even the feasibility of traditional load-balancing policies are challenged by the rapid growth of cloud infrastructure and the increasing levels of server heterogeneity. In such heterogeneous systems with many…
The Join-the-Shortest-Queue (JSQ) load-balancing scheme is known to minimise the average delay of jobs in homogeneous systems consisting of identical servers. However, it performs poorly in heterogeneous systems where servers have different…
With the advent of social networks and the web, the graph sizes have grown too large to fit in main memory precipitating the need for alternative approaches for an efficient, scalable evaluation of queries on graphs of any size. Here, we…
Consider a system with $K$ parallel queues in which the server for each queue processes jobs at rate $n$ and the total arrival rate to the system is $nK-\upsilon \sqrt{n}$ where $\upsilon \in (0, \infty)$ and $n$ is large. We study…
Today's data centers face extreme challenges in providing low latency. However, fair sharing, a principle commonly adopted in current congestion control protocols, is far from optimal for satisfying latency requirements. We propose…
We consider Poisson streams of exponentially distributed jobs arriving at each edge of a hypergraph of queues. Upon arrival, an incoming job is rooted to the shortest queue among the corresponding vertices. This generalizes many known…
