Service Rates

This paper investigates the performance of a queueing model with multiple finite queues and a single server. Departures from the queues are synchronised or coupled which means that a service completion leads to a departure in every queue and that service is temporarily interrupted whenever any of the queues is empty. We focus on the numerical analysis of this queueing model in a Markovian setting: the arrivals in the different queues constitute Poisson processes and the service times are exponentially distributed. Taking into account the state space explosion problem associated with multidimensional Markov processes, we calculate the terms in the series expansion in the service rate of the stationary distribution of the Markov chain as well as various performance measures when the system is (i) overloaded and (ii) under intermediate load. Our numerical results reveal that, by calculating the series expansions of performance measures around a few service rates, we get accurate estimates of various performance measures once the load is above 40% to 50%.

Profit Function

This article deals with the effect of information and uncertainty on profits in an unobservable single-server queuing system. We consider scenarios in which the service rate, the service quality, or the waiting conditions are random variables that are known to the server but not to the customers. We ask whether the server is motivated to reveal these parameters. We investigate the structure of the profit function and its sensitivity to the variance of the random variable. We consider and compare variations of the model according to whether the server can modify the service price after observing the realization of the random variable.

The Individual

For the M/M/1+M model at the law-of-large-numbers scale, the long-run reneging count per unit time does not depend on the individual (i.e., per customer) reneging rate. This paradoxical statement has a simple proof. Less obvious is a large deviations analogue of this fact, stated as follows: the decay rate of the probability that the long-run reneging count per unit time is atypically large or atypically small does not depend on the individual reneging rate. In this paper, the sample path large deviations principle for the model is proved and the rate function is computed. Next, large time asymptotics for the reneging rate are studied for the case when the arrival rate exceeds the service rate. The key ingredient is a calculus of variations analysis of the variational problem associated with atypical reneging. A characterization of the aforementioned decay rate, given explicitly in terms of the arrival and service rate parameters of the model, is provided yielding a precise mathematical description of this paradoxical behavior.

This paper analyzes a discrete-time infinite-buffer Geo/Geo/2 queue, in which the number of servers can be adjusted depending on the number of customers in the system one at a time at arrival or at service completion epoch. Analytical closed-form solutions of the infinite-buffer Geo/Geo/2 queueing system operating under the triadic (0, Q N, M) policy are derived. The total expected cost function is developed to obtain the optimal operating (0, Q N, M) policy and the optimal service rate at minimum cost using direct search method. Some performance measures and sensitivity analysis have been presented.

We show that the waiting time in queue and the sojourn time of every customer in the G/G/1 and G/D/c queue are jointly convex in mean interarrival time and mean service time, and also jointly convex in mean interarrival time and service rate. Counterexamples show that this need not be the case, for the GI/GI/c queue or for the D/GI/c queue, for c ≧ 2. Also, we show that the average number of customers in the M/D/c queue is jointly convex in arrival and service rates. These results are surprising in light of the negative result for the GI/GI/2 queue (Weber (1983)).

A tandem queue with a FIFO multiserver system at each stage, i.i.d. service times and a renewal process of external arrivals is shown to be regenerative by modeling it as a Harris-ergodic Markov chain. In addition, some explicit regeneration points are found. This generalizes the results of Nummelin (1981) in which a single server system is at each stage and the result of Charlot et al. (1978) in which the FIFO GI/GI/c queue is modeled as a Harris chain. In preparing for our result, we study the random assignment queue and use it to give a new proof of Harris ergodicity of the FIFO queue.
