We consider two parallel M/M/∞ queues. All servers in the first queue work at rate μ1 and all in the second work at rate μ2. A new arrival is routed to the system with the lesser number of customers. If both queues have equal occupancy, the arrival joins the first queue with probability ν1, and the second with probability ν2 = 1−ν1. We analyze this model asymptotically. We assume that the arrival rate λ is large compared to the two service rates. We give several different asymptotic formulas, that apply for different ranges of the state space. The numerical accuracy of the asymptotic results is tested. AMS subject classification 60K25 60K30 34E20  相似文献

We consider an M/M/2 system with nonidentical servers and multiple classes of customers. Each customer class has its own reward rate and holding cost. We may assign priorities so that high priority customers may preempt lower priority customers on the servers. We give two models for which the optimal admission and scheduling policy for maximizing expected discounted profit is determined by a threshold structure on the number of customers of each type in the system. Surprisingly, the optimal thresholds do not depend on the specific numerical values of the reward rates and holding costs, making them relatively easy to determine in practice. Our results also hold when there is a finite buffer and when customers have independent random deadlines for service completion.  相似文献

In this paper, we study a scheduling problem of jobs from two different queues on several parallel servers. Jobs have exponentially distributed processing times, and incur costs per unit of time, until they leave the system, and there are no arrivals to the system at any time. The objective is to find the optimal strategy, i.e., to allocate the servers to the queues, such that the expected holding costs are minimized. We give a sufficient condition for which it is always optimal to allocate the servers only to jobs of a certain queue. Finally, the case of two servers is completely solved.  相似文献

Customers arrive in a renewal process at a queue which is served by an exponential and a two-stage Erlangian server. We prove the optimal policy for assignment of customers to the servers which for any t maximizes the expected number of served customers in [0,t].  相似文献

In this paper, we analyze systems that can be modelled by MMn queues with heterogeneous servers and non informed customers. We solve the balance equations. We present a threshold result for a system with an arbitrary number n of servers, i.e. we show that there is a value of arrival rate below which the slow server should not be used and above which it should be used. The structure of the slow server problem for uninformed costumers is investigated. Results for homogeneous systems are also provided in order to add insight into the structure of the problem.Supported by grants from CAPES, CNPq, FAPESP and FAPERJ.AMS subject classification: 90B22, 60K25, 68M20  相似文献

In this paper, we consider an optimization problem for a parallel queueing system with two heterogeneous servers. Each server has its own queue and customers arrive at each queue according to independent Poisson processes. Each service time is independent and exponentially distributed. When a customer arrives at queue 1, the customers in queue 1 can be transferred to queue 2 by paying an assignment cost which is proportional to the number of moved customers. Holding cost is a function of the pair of queue lengths of the two servers. Our objective is to minimize the expected total discounted cost. We use the dynamic programming approach for this problem. Considering the pair of queue lengths as a state space, we show that the optimal policy has a switch over structure under some conditions on the holding cost.  相似文献

We formulate the fixed-charge multiple knapsack problem (FCMKP) as an extension of the multiple knapsack problem (MKP). The Lagrangian relaxation problem is easily solved, and together with a greedy heuristic we obtain a pair of upper and lower bounds quickly. We make use of these bounds in the pegging test to reduce the problem size. We also present a branch-and-bound (B&B) algorithm to solve FCMKP to optimality. This algorithm exploits the Lagrangian upper bound as well as the pegging result for pruning, and at each terminal subproblem solve MKP exactly by invoking MULKNAP code developed by Pisinger [Pisinger, D., 1999. An exact algorithm for large multiple knapsack problems. European Journal of Operational Research 114, 528–541]. As a result, we are able to solve almost all test problems with up to 32,000 items and 50 knapsacks within a few seconds on an ordinary computing environment, although the algorithm remains some weakness for small instances with relatively many knapsacks.  相似文献

Given a network with several weights per node and several lengths per edge, we address the problem of locating a facility on the network such that the convex combinations of the center and median objective functions are minimized. Since we consider several weights and several lengths, various objective functions should be minimized, and hence we have to solve a multicriteria cent-dian location problem. A polynomial algorithm to characterize the efficient location point set on the network is developed. Furthermore, this model can generalize other problems such as the multicriteria center problem and the multicriteria median problem. Computing time results on random planar networks considering different combinations of weights and lengths are reported, which strengthen the polynomial complexity of the procedure.  相似文献

We formulate the multiple knapsack assignment problem (MKAP) as an extension of the multiple knapsack problem (MKP), as well as of the assignment problem. Except for small instances, MKAP is hard to solve to optimality. We present a heuristic algorithm to solve this problem approximately but very quickly. We first discuss three approaches to evaluate its upper bound, and prove that these methods compute an identical upper bound. In this process, reference capacities are derived, which enables us to decompose the problem into mutually independent MKPs. These MKPs are solved euristically, and in total give an approximate solution to MKAP. Through numerical experiments, we evaluate the performance of our algorithm. Although the algorithm is weak for small instances, we find it prospective for large instances. Indeed, for instances with more than a few thousand items we usually obtain solutions with relative errors less than 0.1% within one CPU second.  相似文献

Starting with a problem in wireless telecommunication, we are led to study the multiple knapsack problem with assignment restrictions. This problem is NP-hard. We consider special cases and their computational complexity. We present both randomized and deterministic LP based algorithms, and show both theoretically and computationally their usefulness for large-scale problems.  相似文献

In the majority problem, we are given n balls coloured black or white and we are allowed to query whether two balls have the same colour or not. The goal is to find a ball of majority colour in the minimum number of queries. The answer is known to be nB(n) where B(n) is the number of 1’s in the binary representation of n. In this paper we study randomized algorithms for determining majority, which are allowed to err with probability at most ε. We show that any such algorithm must have expected running time at least . Moreover, we provide a randomized algorithm which shows that this result is best possible. These extend a result of De Marco and Pelc [G. De Marco, A. Pelc, Randomized algorithms for determining the majority on graphs, Combin. Probab. Comput. 15 (2006) 823-834].  相似文献

In this paper, a Markovian queue with two heterogeneous servers and multiple vacations has been studied. For this system, the stationary queue length distribution and mean system size have been obtained by using matrix geometric method. The busy period analysis of the system and mean waiting time distribution are discussed. Extensive numerical illustrations are provided.  相似文献

The multiple container loading cost minimization problem (MCLCMP) is a practical and useful problem in the transportation industry, where products of various dimensions are to be loaded into containers of various sizes so as to minimize the total shipping cost. The MCLCMP can be naturally formulated as a set cover problem and solved using column generation techniques, which is a popular method for handling huge numbers of variables. However, the direct application of column generation is not effective because feasible solutions to the pricing subproblem is required, which for the MCLCMP is NP-hard. We show that efficiency can be greatly improved by generating prototypes that approximate feasible solutions to the pricing problem rather than actual columns. For many hard combinatorial problems, the subproblem in column generation based algorithms is NP-hard; if suitable prototypes can be quickly generated that approximate feasible solutions, then our strategy can also be applied to speed up these algorithms.  相似文献

This paper analyzes an auxiliary server queueing model in which secondary servers are added to the main server(s) when the queue length exceeds some predetermined threshold value at the main queue. We model this system by the level-dependent quasi-birth-death (QBD) process and develop computation algorithms. We apply this model to the web-server system to explore some specific operational characteristics and draw some useful conclusions.  相似文献
