Optimal admission control for tandem loss systems with two stations
نویسندگان
چکیده
We study a system of two queues in tandem with finite buffers, Poisson arrivals to the first station, and exponentially distributed service times at both stations. Losses are incurred either when a customer is rejected at the time of arrival to the first station or when the second station is full at the time of service completion at the first station. The objective is to determine the optimal admission control policy that minimizes the long-run average cost. © 2013 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Maximizing the Throughput of Tandem Lines with Flexible Failure-Prone Servers and Finite Buffers
Consider a tandem queueing network with an infinite supply of jobs in front of the first station, infinite room for completed jobs after the last station, finite buffers between stations, and a number of flexible servers who are subject to failures. We study the dynamic assignment of servers to stations with the goal of maximizing the long-run average throughput. Our main conclusion is that the...
متن کاملServer Assignment Policies for Maximizing the Steady-State Throughput of Finite Queueing Systems
For a system of nite queues, we study how servers should be assigned dynamically to stations in order to obtain optimal (or near-optimal) long-run average throughput. We assume that travel times between di erent service facilities are negligible, that each server can only work on one job at a time, and that several servers can work together on one job. We show that when the service rates depend...
متن کاملFlexible Servers in Tandem Lines with Setups
We study the dynamic assignment of flexible servers to stations in the presence of setup costs that are incurred when servers move between stations. We focus on tandem lines with two stations and two servers with the goal of maximizing the long-run average profit. We investigate how the optimal server assignment policy for such systems depends on the magnitude of the setup costs, as well as on ...
متن کاملOptimal DG Placement for Power Loss Reduction and Improvement Voltage Profile Using Smart Methods
Distributed Generations (DGs) are utilized to supply the active and reactive power in the transmission and distribution systems. These types of power sources have many benefits such as power quality enhancement, voltage deviation reduction, power loss reduction, load shedding reduction, reliability improvement, etc. In order to reach the above benefits, the optimal placement and sizing of DG is...
متن کاملOptimal Control of Flexible Servers in Two Tandem Queues with Operating Costs
We consider two-stage tandem queuing systems with dedicated servers in each station and flexible servers that can serve in both stations. We assume exponential service times, linear holding costs, and operating costs incurred by the servers at rates proportional to their speeds. Under conditions that ensure the optimality of nonidling policies, we show that the optimal allocation of flexible se...
