Consider a system of $N$ parallel single-server queues with unit-exponential service time distribution and a single dispatcher where tasks arrive as a Poisson process of rate $\lambda(N)$. When a task arrives, the dispatcher assigns it to…

We consider queueing systems with n parallel queues under a Join the Shortest Queue (JSQ) policy in the Halfin-Whitt heavy traffic regime. We use the martingale method to prove that a scaled process counting the number of idle servers and…

The Join-the-Shortest-Queue (JSQ) load balancing scheme is known to minimise the average response time of jobs in homogeneous systems with identical servers. However, for {\em heterogeneous} systems with servers having different processing…

We analyse Join-the-Shortest-Queue in a contemporary scaling regime known as the Non-Degenerate Slowdown regime. Join-the-Shortest-Queue (JSQ) is a classical load balancing policy for queueing systems with multiple parallel servers.…

The Join-the-Shortest-Queue (JSQ) policy is among the most widely used load balancing algorithms and has been extensively studied. However, an exact characterization of the system behavior remains challenging. Most prior research has…

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…

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…

This paper studies the steady-state properties of the Join the Shortest Queue model in the Halfin-Whitt regime. We focus on the process tracking the number of idle servers, and the number of servers with non-empty buffers. Recently,…

This paper studies a class of load balancing algorithms for many-server ($N$ servers) systems assuming finite buffer with size $b-1$ (i.e. a server can have at most one job in service and $b-1$ jobs in queue). We focus on steady-state…

We consider a system of $N$ parallel single-server queues with unit exponential service rates and a single dispatcher where tasks arrive as a Poisson process of rate $\lambda(N)$. When a task arrives, the dispatcher assigns it to a server…

We consider a system of $N$ parallel queues with identical exponential service rates and a single dispatcher where tasks arrive as a Poisson process. When a task arrives, the dispatcher always assigns it to an idle server, if there is any,…

We study the steady-state delay performance of load balancing in large-scale systems with heterogeneous servers in the heavy-traffic regimes. The system consists of $N$ servers, each with a local buffer of size $b-1$, serving jobs in the…

We consider a heterogeneous queueing system consisting of one large pool of $O(r)$ identical servers, where $r\to\infty$ is the scaling parameter. The arriving customers belong to one of several classes which determines the service times in…

We consider a multi-server queue in the Halfin-Whitt regime: as the number of servers $n$ grows without a bound, the utilization approaches 1 from below at the rate $\Theta(1/\sqrt{n})$. Assuming that the service time distribution is…

We present an overview of scalable load balancing algorithms which provide favorable delay performance in large-scale systems, and yet only require minimal implementation overhead. Aimed at a broad audience, the paper starts with an…

In 1987, J.W. Cohen analyzed the so-called Serve the Longest Queue (SLQ) queueing system, where a single server attends two non-symmetric $M/G/1$-type queues, exercising a non-preemptive priority switching policy. Cohen further analyzed in…

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…

We consider the problem of minimizing queue-length costs in a system with heterogenous parallel servers, operating in a many-server heavy-traffic regime with nondegenerate slowdown. This regime is distinct from the well-studied heavy…

We address the problem of giving robust performance bounds based on the study of the asymptotic behavior of the insensitive load balancing schemes when the number of servers and the load scales jointly. These schemes have the desirable…
