In this paper, we provide a novel and simple approach to study the supermarket model with general service times. This approach is based on the supplementary variable method used in analyzing stochastic models extensively. We organize an…
In this paper, we provide a matrix-analytic solution for randomized load balancing models (also known as \emph{supermarket models}) with phase-type (PH) service times. Generalizing the service times to the phase-type distribution makes the…
Marcel F. Neuts opened a key door in numerical computation of stochastic models by means of phase-type (PH) distributions and Markovian arrival processes (MAPs). To celebrate his 75th birthday, this paper reports a more general framework of…
Supermarket models are a class of parallel queueing networks with an adaptive control scheme that play a key role in the study of resource management of, such as, computer networks, manufacturing systems and transportation networks. When…
We study a discrete time queueing system where deterministic arrivals have i.i.d. exponential delays $\xi_{i}$. The standard deviation $\sigma$ of the delay is finite, but its value is much larger than the deterministic unit service time.…
We consider a Markovian load balancing model on a fully-connected network, where calls have Poisson arrivals and exponential durations. The endpoints of each call are uniform over all the links of the network. Each call is routed either…
When decomposing the total orbit into $N$ sub-orbits (or simply orbits) related to each of $N$ servers and through comparing the numbers of customers in these orbits, we introduce a retrial supermarket model of $N$ identical servers, where…
Supermarket models with different servers become a key in modeling resource management of stochastic networks, such as, computer networks, manufacturing systems and transportation networks. While these different servers always make analysis…
In this paper we consider large state space continuous time Markov chains (MCs) arising in the field of systems biology. For density dependent families of MCs that represent the interaction of large groups of identical objects, Kurtz has…
The growth of e-commerce has resulted in a surge in parcel deliveries, increasing transportation costs and pollution issues. Alternatives to home delivery have emerged, such as the delivery to so-called parcel pick-up points (PUPs), which…
Supermarket models are a class of interesting parallel queueing networks with dynamic randomized load balancing and real-time resource management. When the parallel servers are subject to breakdowns and repairs, analysis of such a…
We study three classes of continuous time Markov processes (inclusion process, exclusion process, independent walkers) and a family of interacting diffusions (Brownian energy process). For each model we define a boundary driven process…
Doubly intractable distributions arise in many settings, for example in Markov models for point processes and exponential random graph models for networks. Bayesian inference for these models is challenging because they involve intractable…
We study the stochastic six vertex model and prove that under weak asymmetry scaling (i.e., when the parameter $\Delta\to 1^+$ so as to zoom into the ferroelectric/disordered phase critical point) its height function fluctuations converge…
We consider the Markovian supermarket model with growing choices, where jobs arrive at rate $n\lambda_n$ and each of $n$ parallel servers processes jobs in its queue at rate $1$. Each incoming job joins the shortest among $d_n \in…
We consider the supermarket model in the usual Markovian setting where jobs arrive at rate $n \lambda_n$ for some $\lambda_n > 0$, with $n$ parallel servers each processing jobs in its queue at rate 1. An arriving job joins the shortest…
This paper studies the exponential stability of random matrix products driven by a general (possibly unbounded) state space Markov chain. It is a cornerstone in the analysis of stochastic algorithms in machine learning (e.g. for parameter…
The Markovian arrival process (MAP) has proven a versatile model for fitting dependent and non-exponential interarrival times, with a number of applications to queueing, teletraffic, reliability or finance. Despite theoretical properties of…
In an earlier paper, a randomized load balancing model was studied in a heavy traffic asymptotic regime where the load balancing stream is thin compared to the total arrival stream. It was shown that the limit is given by a system of…
Markov-modulated fluid queues are popular stochastic processes frequently used for modelling real-life applications. An important performance measure to evaluate in these applications is their steady-state behaviour, which is determined by…
