The scope of this work is twofold: On the one hand, strongly motivated by emerging engineering issues in multiple access communication systems, we investigate the performance of a slotted-time relay-assisted cooperative random access wireless network with collisions and with join the shortest queue relay-routing protocol. For this model, we investigate the stability condition, and apply different methods to derive the joint equilibrium distribution of the queue lengths. On the other hand, using the cooperative communication system as a vehicle for illustration, we investigate and compare three different approaches for this type of multi-dimensional stochastic processes, namely the compensation approach, the power series algorithm (PSA), and the probability generating function (PGF) approach. We present an extensive numerical comparison of the compensation approach and PSA, and discuss which method performs better in terms of accuracy and computation time. We also provide details on how to compute the PGF in terms of a solution of a Riemann-Hilbert boundary value problem.

This paper investigates a partially observable queueing system with $N$ nodes in which each node has a dedicated arrival stream. There is an extra arrival stream to balance the load of the system by routing its customers to the shortest queue. In addition, a reward-cost structure is considered to analyze customers strategic behaviours. The equilibrium and socially optimal strategies are derived for the partially observable mean field limit model. Then, we show that the strategies obtained from the mean field model are good approximations to the model with finite $N$ nodes. Finally, numerical experiments are provided to compare the equilibrium and socially optimal behaviours, including joining probabilities and social benefits for different system parameters.
We study a single-server Markovian queueing model with $N$ customer classes in which priority is given to the shortest queue. Under a critical load condition, we establish the diffusion limit of the workload and queue length processes in the form of a Walsh Brownian motion (WBM) living in the union of the $N$ nonnegative coordinate axes in $mathbb{R}^N$ and a linear transformation thereof. This reveals the following asymptotic behavior. Each time that queues begin to build starting from an empty system, one of them becomes dominant in the sense that it contains nearly all the workload in the system, and it remains so until the system becomes (nearly) empty again. The radial part of the WBM, given as a reflected Brownian motion (RBM) on the half-line, captures the total workload asymptotics, whereas its angular distribution expresses how likely it is for each class to become dominant on excursions. As a heavy traffic result it is nonstandard in three ways: (i) In the terminology of Harrison (1995) it is unconventional, in that the limit is not an RBM. (ii) It does not constitute an invariance principle, in that the limit law (specifically, the angular distribution) is not determined solely by the first two moments of the data, and is sensitive even to tie breaking rules. (iii) The proof method does not fully characterize the limit law (specifically, it gives no information on the angular distribution).
In this paper we revisit the Markovian queueing system with a single server, infinite capacity queue and the special queue skipping policy. Customers arrive in batches, but are served one by one according to any conservative discipline. The size of the arriving batch becomes known upon its arrival and at any time instant the total number of customers in the system is also known. According to the adopted queue skipping policy if a batch, which size is greater than the current system size, arrives to the system, all current customers in the system are removed from it and the new batch is placed in the queue. Otherwise the new batch is lost. The distribution of the total number of customers in the system is under consideration under assumption that the arrival intensity $lambda(t)$ and/or the service intensity $mu(t)$ are non-random functions of time. We provide the method for the computation of the upper bounds for the rate of convergence of system size to the limiting regime, whenever it exists, for any bounded $lambda(t)$ and $mu(t)$ (not necessarily periodic) and any distribution of the batch size. For periodic intensities $lambda(t)$ and/or $mu(t)$ and light-tailed distribution of the batch size it is shown how the obtained bounds can be used to numerically compute the limiting distribution of the queue size with the given error. Illustrating numerical examples are provided.
We study a generalization of the $M/G/1$ system (denoted by $rM/G/1$) with independent and identically distributed (iid) service times and with an arrival process whose arrival rate $lambda_0f(r)$ depends on the remaining service time $r$ of the current customer being served. We derive a natural stability condition and provide a stationary analysis under it both at service completion times (of the queue length process) and in continuous time (of the queue length and the residual service time). In particular, we show that the stationary measure of queue length at service completion times is equal to that of a corresponding $M/G/1$ system. For $f > 0$ we show that the continuous time stationary measure of the $rM/G/1$ system is linked to the $M/G/1$ system via a time change. As opposed to the $M/G/1$ queue, the stationary measure of queue length of the $rM/G/1$ system at service completions differs from its marginal distribution under the continuous time stationary measure. Thus, in general, arrivals of the $rM/G/1$ system do not see time averages. We derive formulas for the average queue length, probability of an empty system and average waiting time under the continuous time stationary measure. We provide examples showing the effect of changing the reshaping function on the average waiting time.
Let $(M,g_1)$ be a complete $d$-dimensional Riemannian manifold for $d > 1$. Let $mathcal X_n$ be a set of $n$ sample points in $M$ drawn randomly from a smooth Lebesgue density $f$ supported in $M$. Let $x,y$ be two points in $M$. We prove that the normalized length of the power-weighted shortest path between $x, y$ through $mathcal X_n$ converges almost surely to a constant multiple of the Riemannian distance between $x,y$ under the metric tensor $g_p = f^{2(1-p)/d} g_1$, where $p > 1$ is the power parameter.
