We analyze the behavior of closed product-form queueing networks when the number of customers grows to infinity and remains proportionate on each route (or class). First, we focus on the stationary behavior and prove the conjecture that the…
We present the explicit construction of a stable queue with several servers and impatient customers, under stationary ergodic assumptions. Using a stochastic comparison of the (multivariate) workload sequence with two monotonic stochastic…

This paper considers a parallel system of queues fed by independent arrival streams, where the service rate of each queue depends on the number of customers in all of the queues. Necessary and sufficient conditions for the stability of the…
In this paper, we present a condition to obtain instability for a class of queueing networks where the arrival rates in each server are constant and the departure rate in each server is a decreasing function of the queue lengths of other…
We consider the stability of robust scheduling policies for multiclass queueing networks. These are open networks with arbitrary routing matrix and several disjoint groups of queues in which at most one queue can be served at a time. The…
In this paper, we study a queueing model that incorporates patient reentrance to reflect patients' recurring requests for nurse care and their rest periods between these requests. Within this framework, we address two levels of…
For a multiclass G/G/1 queue with finite buffers, admission and scheduling control, and holding and rejection costs, we construct a policy that is asymptotically optimal in the heavy traffic limit. The policy is specified in terms of a…
We consider a single class open queueing network, also known as a generalized Jackson network (GJN). A classical result in heavy-traffic theory asserts that the sequence of normalized queue length processes of the GJN converge weakly to a…
We consider a class of multi-agent distributed synchronization systems, which are modeled as $n$ particles moving on the real line. This class generalizes the model of a multi-server queueing system, considered in [15], employing so-called…
We consider a fluid queue where the input process consists of N identical sources that turn on and off at exponential waiting times. The server works at the constant rate c and an on source generates fluid at unit rate. This model was first…
Network capacity region of multi-queue multi-server queueing system with random ON-OFF connectivities and stationary arrival processes is derived in this paper. Specifically, the necessary and sufficient conditions for the stability of the…
We introduce an extension of the M/M/1 queueing process with a spatial structure and excluded- volume effect. The rule of particle hopping is the same as for the totally asymmetric simple exclusion process (TASEP). A stationary-state…
In this paper, we introduce a versatile scheme for optimizing the arrival rates of quasi-reversible queueing systems. We first propose an alternative definition of quasi-reversibility that encompasses reversibility and highlights the…
In this article, we consider a continuous review (s, S) inventory system with failures of demand fulfillment (service) modeled as a Markov-modulated retrial queueing system. The inventory system features a single product that experiences…
We study a simple rate control scheme for a multiclass queuing network for which customers are partitioned into distinct flows that are queued separately at each station. The control scheme discards customers that arrive to the network…
We give a simple derivation of the distribution of the maximum L of the length of the queue during a busy period for the M/M/1 queue with lambda<1 the ratio between arrival rate and service rate. We observe that the asymptotic behavior of…
This paper studies load balancing for many-server ($N$ servers) systems. Each server has a buffer of size $b-1,$ and can have at most one job in service and $b-1$ jobs in the buffer. The service time of a job follows the Coxian-2…

This note introduces a piecewise-deterministic queueing (PDQ) model to study the stability of traffic queues in parallel-link transportation systems facing stochastic capacity fluctuations. The saturation rate (capacity) of the PDQ model…
