Performance Analysis of Queueing Networks via Robust Optimization

Performance Analysis of Queueing Networks via Robust Optimization

Performance analysis of queueing networks is one of the most challenging areas of queueing theory. Barring very specialized models such as product-form type queueing networks, there exist very few results which provide provable non-asymptotic upper and lower bounds on key performance measures. In this paper we propose a new performance analysis method, which is based on the robust optimization....

Performance Analysis of Queueing Networks with Blocking

Queueing network models have been widely applied for performance modeling and analysis of computer networks. Queueing network models with finite capacity queues and blocking (QNB) allow representing and analyzing systems with finite resources and population constraints. Different protocols can be defined to deal with finite capacity resources and they can be modeled in queueing networks with bl...

Stochastic Analysis via Robust Optimization

To evaluate the performance and optimize systems under uncertainty, two main avenues have been suggested in the literature: stochastic analysis and optimization describing the uncertainty probabilistically and robust optimization describing the uncertainty deterministically. Instead, we propose a novel paradigm which leverages the conclusions of probability theory and the tractability of the ro...
