SIAM Journal on Applied Mathematics, Vol. 59, No. 6 (Aug. - Oct., 1999), pp. 1917-1959 (43 pages) We consider two tandem queues with exponential servers. Arrivals to the first queue are governed by a ...

We analyze two scheduling problems for a queueing system with a single server and two customer classes. Each class has its own renewal arrival process, general service time distribution, and holding ...

One of the useful features in new networking hardware is extra transmit queues, to give a latency advantage to outgoing audio and video packets. A new kernel feature lets device driver writers use ...

Polling systems and queueing theory constitute a significant branch of applied mathematics that underpins various modern technological and industrial applications. These areas investigate systems ...
