Queueing models and stability of message flows in distributed simulators of open queueing networks

Queueing Models and Stability of Message Flows in Distributed Simulators of Open Queueing Networks - Parallel and Distributed Simulation, 1996. Pads 96. Proceedings. Tenth Workshop on

In this paper we study message flow processes in distributed simulators of open queueing networks. We develop and study queueing models for distributed simulators with maximum lookahead sequencing. We characterize the “external” arrival process, and the message feedback process in the simulator of a simple queueing network with feedback. We show that a certain “natural” modelling construct for ...

Modelling and Analysis of Event Message Flows in Distributed Discrete Event Simulators of Queueing Networks

Flow-controlled Throughput in Distributed Simulators of Feedforward Queueing Networks

Sequential simulation of complex systems can be exceedingly slow and expensive. An obvious means of obtaining faster simulation is to dedicate more resources to it. Distributed Discrete Event Simulation has emerged an important method to study the behaviour of various systems, such as, for example, wireline and wireless networks. In this paper we study the flowcontrolled throughput in the distr...

Stability of Open Multiclass Queueing Networks via Fluid Models

This paper surveys recent work on the stability of open multiclass queueing networks via fluid models. We recapitulate the stability result of Dai [8]. To facilitate study of the converse of the stability result, we distinguish between the notion of fluid limit and that of fluid solution. We define the stability region of a service discipline and the global stability region of a network. Exampl...
