An Infinite Dimensional Model for a Many Server Priority Queue
Neal Master, Zhengyuan Zhou, Nicholas Bambos
We consider a Markovian many server queueing system in which customers are preemptively scheduled according to exogenously assigned priority levels. The priority levels are randoml…
Power Control for Packet Streaming with Head-of-Line Deadlines
Neal Master, Nicholas Bambos
We consider a mathematical model for streaming media packets (as the motivating key example) from a transmitter buffer to a receiver over a wireless link while controlling the tran…
An Infinite Dimensional Model for A Single Server Priority Queue
Neal Master, Zhengyuan Zhou, Nicholas Bambos
We consider a Markovian single server queue in which customers are preemptively scheduled by exogenously assigned priority levels. The novelty in our model is that the priority lev…
Service Rate Control For Jobs with Decaying Value
Neal Master, Nicholas Bambos
The task of completing jobs with decaying value arises in a number of application areas including healthcare operations, communications engineering, and perishable inventory contro…
Infinite Server Queueing Networks with Deadline Based Routing
Neal Master, Nicholas Bambos
Motivated by timeouts in Internet services, we consider networks of infinite server queues in which routing decisions are based on deadlines. Specifically, at each node in the netw…
Myopic Policies for Non-Preemptive Scheduling of Jobs with Decaying Value
Neal Master, Carri W. Chan, Nicholas Bambos
In many scheduling applications, minimizing delays is of high importance. One adverse effect of such delays is that the reward for completion of a job may decay over time. Indeed i…
