Cost Optimality

We introduce a Markov decision process in continuous time for the optimal control of a simple symmetrical immigration-emigration process by the introduction of total catastrophes. It is proved that a particular control-limit policy is average cost optimal within the class of all stationary policies by verifying that the relative values of this policy are the solution of the corresponding optimality equation.

By considering continuous-time Markov decision processes where decisions can be made at any time, we show in the case of M/M/1 queues with discounted costs that there exists a monotone optimal policy among all the regular policies.
