Cloud computing is an established technology allowing users to share resources on a large scale, never before seen in IT history. A cloud system connects multiple individual servers in order to process related tasks in several environments…

This paper considers a Markov decision model for profit maximization of a cloud computing service provider catering to customers submitting jobs with firm real-time random deadlines. Customers are charged on a per-job basis, receiving a…

Load balancing arises as a fundamental problem, underlying the dimensioning and operation of many computing and communication systems, such as job routing in data center clusters, multipath communication, Big Data and queueing systems. In…

We consider a load balancing system consisting of $n$ single-server queues working in parallel, with heterogeneous service rates. Jobs arrive to a central dispatcher, which has to dispatch them to one of the queues immediately upon arrival.…

In Cloud computing environment the resources are managed dynamically based on the need and demand for resources for a particular task. With a lot of challenges to be addressed our concern is Load balancing where load balancing is done for…

We study a make-to-order system with a finite set of customers. Production is stochastic with a nonlinear dependence between the ordered quantity and the production rate. Customers may have to queue until their turn arrives, and therefore…

We present a model for measuring the impact of offloading soft real-time jobs over multi-tier cloud infrastructures. The jobs originate in mobile devices and offloading strategies may choose to execute them locally, in neighbouring devices,…

A fundamental challenge in large-scale cloud networks and data centers is to achieve highly efficient server utilization and limit energy consumption, while providing excellent user-perceived performance in the presence of uncertain and…

Operating cloud service infrastructures requires high energy efficiency while ensuring a satisfactory service level. Motivated by data centers, we consider a workload routing and server speed control policy applicable to the system…

Under a dramatic increase in mobile data traffic, a promising solution for edge computing systems to maintain their local service is the task migration that may be implemented by means of Autonomous mobile agents (AMA). In designing an…

This paper considers the steady-state performance of load balancing algorithms in a many-server system with distributed queues. The system has $N$ servers, and each server maintains a local queue with buffer size $b-1,$ i.e. a server can…

After the advent of the Internet of Things and 5G networks, edge computing became the center of attraction. The tasks demanding high computation are generally offloaded to the cloud since the edge is resource-limited. The Edge Cloud is a…

In this paper, we introduce a model of dynamical queue, in which the service time depends on the server utilization history. The proposed queueing model is motivated by widely accepted empirical laws describing human performance as a…

We study a two-stage tandem service queue attended by two servers. Each job-server pair must complete both service phases together, with the server unable to begin a new job until the current one is fully processed after two stages.…

We study the performance of non-adaptive scheduling policies in computing systems with multiple servers. Compute jobs are mostly regular, with modest service requirements. However, there are sporadic data intensive jobs, whose expected…

Mobile edge computing (MEC) has recently emerged as a promising technology to release the tension between computation-intensive applications and resource-limited mobile terminals (MTs). In this paper, we study the delay-optimal computation…

Mobile-edge computing (MEC) emerges as a promising paradigm to improve the quality of computation experience for mobile devices. Nevertheless, the design of computation task scheduling policies for MEC systems inevitably encounters a…

We study a class of scheduling problems, where each job is divided into a batch of unit-size tasks and these tasks can be executed in parallel on multiple servers with New-Better-than-Used (NBU) service time distributions. While many delay…

We study a two-type server queueing system where flexible Type-I servers, upon their initial interaction with jobs, decide in real time whether to process them independently or in collaboration with dedicated Type-II servers. Independent…

We consider an M/M/N/K/FCFS system (N>0, K>=N), where the servers operate at (possibly) heterogeneous service rates. In this situation, the steady state behavior depends on the routing policy that is used to select which idle server serves…
