This paper deals with the problem of optimally designing a complex queueing system in presence of some constraints. The system is constituted by a set of M/M/1 queueing (sub-)systems, sharing the same scarce resources, but otherwise running independently. The objective is to minimize an inefficiency index, defined as the maximum expected line-penalty among the subsystems. The service rates are the decision variables. Different special problems, admitting the same general formulation, are illustrated.

Abstract

This paper deals with the problem of optimally designing a complex queueing system in presence of some constraints. The system is constituted by a set of M/M/1 queueing (sub-)systems, sharing the same scarce resources, but otherwise running independently. The objective is to minimize an inefficiency index, defined as the maximum expected line-penalty among the subsystems. The service rates are the decision variables. Different special problems, admitting the same general formulation, are illustrated.
