Multi-Server Queueing Systems with Multiple Priority Classes

We present the first near-exact analysis of an M/PH/k queue with m > 2 preemptive-resume priority classes. Our analysis introduces a new technique, which we refer to as Recursive Dimensionality Reduction (RDR). The key idea in RDR is that the m-dimensionally infinite Markov chain, representing the m class state space, is recursively reduced to a 1-dimensionally infinite Markov chain, that is easily and quickly solved. RDR involves no truncation and results in only small inaccuracy when compared with simulation, for a wide range of loads and variability in the job size distribution. Our analytic methods are then used to derive insights on how multi-server systems with prioritization compare with their single server counterparts with respect to response time. Multi-server systems are also compared with single server systems with respect to the effect of different prioritization schemes—“smart” prioritization (giving priority to the smaller jobs) versus “stupid” prioritization (giving priority to the larger jobs). We also study the effect of approximating m class performance by collapsing the m classes into just two classes.

On the Three Threshold Policy in the Multi-Server Queueing System with Vacations

In this paper, we study an M/M/c queue with a three threshold vacation policy denoted by (e, d, N). With such a policy, the servers keep serving the customers until the number of idle servers reaches d and then e of d servers start taking a vacation together. These e servers keep taking vacations until the number of customers in the system is at least N at a vacation completion instant, then the e servers return to serve the queue again. Using the matrix analytic method, we obtain the stationary performance measures and prove the conditional stochastic decomposition properties for the waiting time and queue length. This model is a generalization of previous multi-server vacation models and offers a useful performance evaluation and system design tool in multi-task server queueing systems.     

Some New Results for Departure Process in the M X /G/1 Queueing System with a Single Vacation and Exhaustive Service

A batch arrival queueing system with a single vacation between two successive busy periods and with exhaustive service is considered.

The departure process h(t) is studied first on a single vacation cycle. The approach based on renewal theory is applied to obtain results in the general case. In particular, the explicit representation for the generating function of Laplace transform of the probability function of h(t) is derived. All formulae are written in terms of input parameters of the system and factors of a certain canonical factorization of Wiener–Hopf type. A numerical approach to results is discussed as well.

Stationary Distributions of GI/M/c Queue with PH Type Vacations

We study a GI/M/c type queueing system with vacations in which all servers take vacations together when the system becomes empty. These servers keep taking synchronous vacations until they find waiting customers in the system at a vacation completion instant.The vacation time is a phase-type (PH) distributed random variable. Using embedded Markov chain modeling and the matrix geometric solution methods, we obtain explicit expressions for the stationary probability distributions of the queue length at arrivals and the waiting time. To compare the vacation model with the classical GI/M/c queue without vacations, we prove conditional stochastic decomposition properties for the queue length and the waiting time when all servers are busy. Our model is a generalization of several previous studies.

Analysis of the M/M/1 Queue with Processor Sharing via Spectral Theory

We show in this paper that the computation of the distribution of the sojourn time of an arbitrary customer in a M/M/1 with the processor sharing discipline (abbreviated to M/M/1 PS queue) can be formulated as a spectral problem for a self-adjoint operator. This approach allows us to improve the existing results for this queue in two directions. First, the orthogonal structure underlying the M/M/1 PS queue is revealed. Second, an integral representation of the distribution of the sojourn time of a customer entering the system while there are n customers in service is obtained.     

The Discrete-Time GI/Geo/1 Queue with Multiple Vacations

We study a discrete-time GI/Geo/1 queue with server vacations. In this queueing system, the server takes vacations when the system does not have any waiting customers at a service completion instant or a vacation completion instant. This type of discrete-time queueing model has potential applications in computer or telecommunication network systems. Using matrix-geometric method, we obtain the explicit expressions for the stationary distributions of queue length and waiting time and demonstrate the conditional stochastic decomposition property of the queue length and waiting time in this system.     

Exact Convergence Rate for the Distributions of GI/M/c/K Queue as K Tends to Infinity

We obtain the exact convergence rate of the stationary distribution ^(K) of the embedded Markov chain in GI/M/c/K queue to the stationary distribution of the embedded Markov chain in GI/M/c queue as K. Similar result for the time-stationary distributions of queue size is also included. These generalize Choi and Kim's results of the case c=1 by nontrivial ways. Our results also strengthen the Simonot's results [5].     

Analysis of customers’ impatience in queues with server vacations

Many models for customers impatience in queueing systems have been studied in the past; the source of impatience has always been taken to be either a long wait already experienced at a queue, or a long wait anticipated by a customer upon arrival. In this paper we consider systems with servers vacations where customers’ impatience is due to an absentee of servers upon arrival. Such a model, representing frequent behavior by waiting customers in service systems, has never been treated before in the literature. We present a comprehensive analysis of the single-server, M/M/1 and M/G/1 queues, as well as of the multi-server M/M/c queue, for both the multiple and the single-vacation cases, and obtain various closed-form results. In particular, we show that the proportion of customer abandonments under the single-vacation regime is smaller than that under the multiple-vacation discipline. This work was supported by the Euro-Ngi network of excellence.     

Analysis of Markov Multiserver Retrial Queues with Negative Arrivals

Negative arrivals are used as a control mechanism in many telecommunication and computer networks. In the paper we analyze multiserver retrial queues; i.e., any customer finding all servers busy upon arrival must leave the service area and re-apply for service after some random time. The control mechanism is such that, whenever the service facility is full occupied, an exponential timer is activated. If the timer expires and the service facility remains full, then a random batch of customers, which are stored at the retrial pool, are automatically removed. This model extends the existing literature, which only deals with a single server case and individual removals. Two different approaches are considered. For the stable case, the matrix–analytic formalism is used to study the joint distribution of the service facility and the retrial pool. The approximation by more simple infinite retrial model is also proved. In the overloading case we study the transient behaviour of the trajectory of the suitably normalized retrial queue and the long-run behaviour of the number of busy servers. The method of investigation in this case is based on the averaging principle for switching processes.     

Performance Analysis with Truncated Heavy-Tailed Distributions

This paper deals with queues and insurance risk processes where a generic service time, resp. generic claim, has the form U ∧ K for some r.v. U with distribution B which is heavy-tailed, say Pareto or Weibull, and a typically large K, say much larger than . We study the compound Poisson ruin probability ψ(u) or, equivalently, the tail of the M/G/1 steady-state waiting time W. In the first part of the paper, we present numerical values of ψ(u) for different values of K by using the classical Siegmund algorithm as well as a more recent algorithm designed for heavy-tailed claims/service times, and compare the results to different approximations of ψ(u) in order to figure out the threshold between the light-tailed regime and the heavy-tailed regime. In the second part, we investigate the asymptotics as K → ∞ of the asymptotic exponential decay rate γ = γ ^(K) in a more general truncated Lévy process setting, and give a discussion of some of the implications for the approximations.
