Analysis of join-the-shortest-queue routing for web server farms
Join the Shortest Queue (JSQ) is a popular routing policy for server farms. However, until now all analysis of JSQ has been limited to First-Come-First-Serve (FCFS) server farms, ...

Performance bounds for feedforward queueing networks with upper-constrained inputs
We propose a simple framework for analyzing feedforward queueing networks that have the following features: each customer belongs to a (customer) flow and the route that a custom...

Delay characteristics in discrete-time GI-G-1 queues with non-preemptive priority queueing discipline
Priority scheduling for packets is becoming a hot topic, as attemps are being made to integrate voice services in existing data networks. In this paper, we consider a discrete-tim...
