Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The First Comprehensive Book on the Subject Focusing on the underlying structure of a system, Optimal Design of Queueing Systems explores how to set the parameters of a queueing system, such as arrival and service rates, before putting it into operation. It considers various objectives, comparing individually optimal (Nash equilibrium), socially optimal, class optimal, and facility optimal flow allocations. After an introduction to basic design models, the book covers the optimal arrival rate model for a single-facility, single-class queue as well as dynamic algorithms for finding individually or socially optimal arrival rates and prices. It then examines several special cases of multiclass queues, presents models in which the service rate is a decision variable, and extends models and techniques to multifacility queueing systems. Focusing on networks of queues, the final chapters emphasize the qualitative properties of optimal solutions. Written by a long-time, recognized researcher on models for the optimal design and control of queues and networks of queues, this book frames the issues in the general setting of a queueing system. It shows how design models can control flow to achieve a variety of objectives.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book introduces the theoretical fundamentals for modeling queues in discrete-time, and the basic procedures for developing queuing models in discrete-time. There is a focus on applications in modern telecommunication systems. It presents how most queueing models in discrete-time can be set up as discrete-time Markov chains. Techniques such as matrix-analytic methods (MAM) that can used to analyze the resulting Markov chains are included. This book covers single node systems, tandem system and queueing networks. It shows how queues with time-varying parameters can be analyzed, and illustrates numerical issues associated with computations for the discrete-time queueing systems. Optimal control of queues is also covered. Applied Discrete-Time Queues targets researchers, advanced-level students and analysts in the field of telecommunication networks. It is suitable as a reference book and can also be used as a secondary text book in computer engineering and computer science. Examples and exercises are included.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To Queue Or Not To Queue: Equilibrium Behavior in Queueing Systems focuses on the highly interesting, practical viewpoint of customer behavior and its effect on the performance of the queueing system. The book's objectives are threefold: (1) It is a comprehensive survey of the literature on equilibrium behavior of customers and servers in queueing systems. The literature is rich and considerable, but lacks continuity. This book will provide the needed continuity and cover some issues that have not been adequately treated. (2) In addition, it will examine the known results of the field, classify them and identify where and how they relate to each other. (3) And finally, it seeks to fill a number of the gaps in the literature with new results while explicitly outlining open problems in other areas. With this book, it is the authors' paramount purpose is to motivate further research and to help researchers identify new and interesting open problems.

Download or read book Optimal and Approximately Optimal Control Policies for Queues in Heavy Traffic written by Lefschetz Center for Dynamical Systems and published by . This book was released on 1988 with total page 59 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We treat the 'approximately' optimal control problem for tandem queueing or production networks (with local feedback allowed) under heavy traffic. The buffers (scaled with traffic) are finite. The controls allow various inputs, connecting links and the processors to be shut down or opened, in order to manage the system. The service and arrival rates, as well as the routing probabilities can also be controlled, and the system statistics can depend on the system state (scaled buffer occupancies). The associated costs involve holding costs, costs for shutting off/on the links or processors and the opportunity cost for lost production. It is shown that the (scaled) controlled system converges weakly (in an appropriate sense) to a controlled limit 'reflected' diffusion. In the rescaled time, the actions of the controllers lead to multiple 'simultaneous' impulses in the limit problem. Thus we have a non-standard limit control problem, and the usual methods of weak convergence for systems under heavy traffic must be modified. Since the optical or nearly optimal controls for the physical process are usually not possible to get, it is of considerable interest to know whether an optimal or nearly optimal control for the limit process is also nearly optimal for the physical system with heavy traffic. This is shown to be true, under reasonable conditions. Although the limit control problem is non-standard and there is little available theory concerning it, acceptable numerical procedures are available. Keywords: Numerical methods for stochastic control.

Download or read book Optimal Control of Queueing Systems with Intermittent Service written by Joseph Daniel Blackburn and published by . This book was released on 1971 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The report describes models for single-server queueing systems with Poisson arrivals and general service-time distribution which are controlled by turning the server on-and-off. The objective is an operating policy which minimizes (maximizes) expected discounted cost (reward) over an infinite horizon. Four distinct models of intermittent service systems are considered. The cost structure for these models includes fixed costs for starting-up and shutting-down the service facility, a server operating cost per unit time and either a holding cost for waiting customers or a reward for serving customers. Two of the models are based on different assumptions concerning the holding cost function. The two remaining models include provisions for balking (an arriving customer chooses not to join the queue) and reneging (customers leaving the queue without being served). For each of the models, there exists an optimal policy characterized by a pair of critical numbers (N, M): turn the server on whenever the number of customers equals (or exceeds) M and turn the server off whenever the number of customers is less than or equal to N. Algorithms for computing the optimal critical numbers are described. (Author).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every day we experience the annoyance of having to queue. The phenomenon is becoming more prevalent in our increasingly congested and urbanised society. Not only the visible queues in traffic jams, airport check in desks and supermarkets, but the more common invisible queues caused by voice calls and data packets in optical and wireless channels. Queues cost us time, money and resources; so what is the solution to our greater demand for services than there are facilities? Queuing control plays a crucial role in manufacturing and communication networks around the world. This pioneering approach, using fuzzy control to solve queuing control problems, determines explicit solutions to various types of control in queuing systems. The bulk of results have been developed over the past decade and are presented here together for the first time. 21 detailed case studies demonstrate an efficient departure from classical techniques. Unique work creating a new Research and Development topic. Multidisciplinary approach that will benefit researchers and students throughout the fields of artificial intelligence, operations research, optimal control, Internet techniques, communications and traffic control industries. Equipped with an extensive bibliography for easy reference and scope for further study. Existing practical problems, especially those that are unresponsive to conventional control techniques, are solved with the introduction of this novel approach. A systematic framework of the ‘fuzzy control of queuing networks’ is developed through each individual case.

Download or read book Frontiers in Queueing written by Jewgeni H. Dshalalow and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 1997-01-21 with total page 482 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Queueing systems and networks are being applied to many areas of technology today, including telecommunications, computers, satellite systems, and traffic processes. This timely book, written by 26 of the most respected and influential researchers in the field, provides an overview of fundamental queueing systems and networks as applied to these technologies. Frontiers in Queueing: Models and Applications in Science and Engineering was written with more of an engineering slant than its predecessor, Advances in Queueing: Theory, Methods, and Open Problems. The earlier book was primarily concerned with methods, and was more theoretically oriented. This new volume, meant to be a sequel to the first book, was written by scientists and queueing theorists whose expertise is in technology and engineering, allowing readers to answer questions regarding the technicalities of related methods from the earlier book. Each chapter in the book surveys the classes of queueing models and networks, or the applied methods in queueing, and is followed by a discussion of open problems and future research directions. The discussion of these future trends is especially important to novice researchers, students, and even their advisors, as it provides the perspectives of eminent scientists in each area, thus showing where research efforts should be focused. Frontiers in Queueing: Models and Applications in Science and Engineering also includes applications to vital areas of engineering and technology, specifically, telecommunications, computers and computer networks, satellite systems, traffic processes, and more applied methods such as simulation, statistics, and numerical methods. All researchers, from students to advanced professionals, can benefit from the sound advice and perspective of the contributors represented in this book.

Book excerpt: The dissertation resolves the problem of finding the optimal dynamic operating policies for queueing systems consisting of two stations, in series, coupled by a finite intermediate storage when it is possible to vary the average service rates of the two facilities. Random service times ar assumed in each of the facilities with the current average service rate as a parameter of an exponential probability distribution governing each service time.
