Large number of queues in tandem: Scaling properties under back-pressure algorithm
Abstract We consider a system with N unit-service-rate queues in tandem, with exogenous arrivals of rate λ at queue 1, under a back-pressure (MaxWeight) algorithm: service at queu...

On the Queueing Behavior of Random Codes over a Gilbert-Elliot Erasure Channel
This paper considers the queueing performance of a system that transmits coded data over a time-varying erasure channel. In our model, the queue length and channel state together f...

A Phase-Type Representation for the Queue Length Distribution of a Semi-Markovian Queue
Abstract--In this paper we study a broad class of semiMarkovian queues introduced by Sengupta. This class contains many classical queues such as the GI/M/1 queue, SM/MAP/1 queue an...

The acquisition queue
We propose a new queueing model named the acquisition queue. It differs from conventional queueing models in that the server not only serves customers, but also performs acquisit...

Analysis of join-the-shortest-queue routing for web server farms
Join the Shortest Queue (JSQ) is a popular routing policy for server farms. However, until now all analysis of JSQ has been limited to First-Come-First-Serve (FCFS) server farms, ...

Reducing Queue Oscillation at a Congested Link
Queue length oscillation at a congested link causes many undesirable properties such as large delay jitter, underutilization of the link and packet drops in burst. The main reason ...

REal-time delay estimation in call centers
We use computer simulation to study the performance of alternative real-time delay estimators in heavily loaded multiserver queueing models. These delay estimates may be used to m...
