This paper introduces and analyzes the notion of throughput suboptimality for many-server queueing systems in heavy traffic. The queueing model under consideration has multiple customer classes, indexed by a finite set $mathcal{I}$, and heterogenous, exponential servers. Servers are dynamically chosen to serve customers, and buffers are available for customers waiting to be served. The arrival rates and the number of servers are scaled up in such a way that the processes representing the number of class-$i$ customers in the system, $iinmathcal{I}$, fluctuate about a static fluid model, that is assumed to be critically loaded in a standard sense. At the same time, the fluid model is assumed to be throughput suboptimal. Roughly, this means that the servers can be allocated so as to achieve a total processing rate that is greater than the total arrival rate. We show that there exists a dynamic control policy for the queueing model that is efficient in the following strong sense: Under this policy, for every finite $T$, the measure of the set of times prior to $T$, at which at least one customer is in the buffer, converges to zero in probability as the arrival rates and number of servers go to infinity. On the way to prove our main result, we provide a characterization of throughput suboptimality in terms of properties of the buffer-station graph.

Proportional fairness is a popular service allocation mechanism to describe and analyze the performance of data networks at flow level. Recently, several authors have shown that the invariant distribution of such networks admits a product form distri
bution under critical loading. Assuming exponential job size distributions, they leave the case of general job size distributions as an open question. In this paper we show the conjecture holds for a dense class of distributions. This yields a key example of a stochastic network in which the heavy traffic limit has an invariant distribution that does not depend on second moments. Our analysis relies on a uniform convergence result for a fluid model which may be of independent interest.
We develop accurate approximations of the delay distribution of the MArP/G/1 queue that cap- ture the exact tail behavior and provide bounded relative errors. Motivated by statistical analysis, we consider the service times as a mixture of a phase-ty
pe and a heavy-tailed distribution. With the aid of perturbation analysis, we derive corrected phase-type approximations as a sum of the delay in an MArP/PH/1 queue and a heavy-tailed component depending on the perturbation parameter. We exhibit their performance with numerical examples.
Significant correlations between arrivals of load-generating events make the numerical evaluation of the workload of a system a challenging problem. In this paper, we construct highly accurate approximations of the workload distribution of the MAP/G/
1 queue that capture the tail behavior of the exact workload distribution and provide a bounded relative error. Motivated by statistical analysis, we consider the service times as a mixture of a phase-type and a heavy-tailed distribution. With the aid of perturbation analysis, we derive our approximations as a sum of the workload distribution of the MAP/PH/1 queue and a heavy-tailed component that depends on the perturbation parameter. We refer to our approximations as corrected phase-type approximations, and we exhibit their performance with a numerical study.
This paper develops tools to obtain robust probabilistic estimates for queueing models at the large deviations (LD) scale. These tools are based on the recently introduced robust Renyi bounds, which provide LD estimates (and more generally risk-sensi
tive (RS) cost estimates) that hold uniformly over an uncertainty class of models, provided that the class is defined in terms of Renyi divergence with respect to a reference model and that estimates are available for the reference model. One very attractive quality of the approach is that the class to which the estimates apply may consist of hard models, such as highly non-Markovian models and ones for which the LD principle is not available. Our treatment provides exact expressions as well as bounds on the Renyi divergence rate on families of marked point processes, including as a special case renewal processes. Another contribution is a general result that translates robust RS control problems, where robustness is formulated via Renyi divergence, to finite dimensional convex optimization problems, when the control set is a finite dimensional convex set. The implications to queueing are vast, as they apply in great generality. This is demonstrated on two non-Markovian queueing models. One is the multiclass single-server queue considered as a RS control problem, with scheduling as the control process and exponential weighted queue length as cost. The second is the many-server queue with reneging, with the probability of atypically large reneging count as performance criterion. As far as LD analysis is concerned, no robust estimates or non-Markovian treatment were previously available for either of these models.
