Energy efficient management of two cellular access networks
In this paper we evaluate the energy saving that can be achieved with the energy-aware cooperative management of the cellular access networks of two operators offering service ove...

The average response time in a heavy-traffic srpt queue
Shortest Remaining Processing Time first (SRPT) has long been known to optimize the queue length distribution and the mean response time (a.k.a. flow time, sojourn time). As such,...

Decomposition results for an m/m/k with staggered setup
In this paper, we consider an M/M/k queueing system with setup costs. Servers are turned off when there is no work to do, but turning on an off server incurs a setup cost. The s...

A fluid approximation for large-scale service systems
We introduce and analyze a deterministic fluid model that serves as an approximation for the Gt/GI/st + GI manyserver queueing model, which has a general time-varying arrival pro...

On random walks in direction-aware network problems
Graph theory provides a powerful set of metrics and conceptual ideas to model and investigate the behavior of communication networks. Most graph-theoretical frameworks in the netw...

Heavy-traffic limits for nearly deterministic queues
We establish heavy-traffic limits for nearly deterministic queues, such as the G/D/n many-server queue. Since waiting times before starting service in the G/D/n queue are equivale...

Route oracle: where have all the packets gone?
Many network-management problems in large backbone networks need the answer to a seemingly simple question: where does a given IP packet, entering the network at a particular plac...
