Bulk-arrival queues with single servers that provide bulk service are widespread in the real world, e.g., elevators in buildings, people-movers in amusement parks, air-cargo deliv...
Users of distributed systems such as the TeraGrid and Open Science Grid can execute their applications on many different systems. We wish to help such users, or the grid scheduler...
In this paper, we present a performance analysis of a 2-dimensional preemptive priority queueing system with state-dependent arrivals. Using a Markovian formulation we first comput...
We study an online random linear network coding approach for time division duplexing (TDD) channels under Poisson arrivals. We model the system as a bulk-service queue with variabl...
In this work, we characterize the performance of pico cell networks in presence of moving users. We model various traffic types between base-stations and mobiles as different typ...
