Compensating for Failures with Flexible Servers
We consider the problem of maximizing capacity in a queueing network with flexible servers, where the classes and servers are subject to failure. We assume that the interarrival and service times are independent and identically distributed, that routing is probabilistic, and that the failure state of the system can be described by a Markov process that is independent of the other system dynamic...
متن کاملCONTROL OF FLEXIBLE JOINT ROBOT MANIPULATORS BY COMPENSATING FLEXIBILITY
A flexible-joint robot manipulator is a complex system because it is nonlinear, multivariable, highly coupled along with joint flexibility and uncertainty. To overcome flexibility, several methods have been proposed based on flexible model. This paper presents a novel method for controlling flexible-joint robot manipulators. A novel control law is presented by compensating flexibility to form a...
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 کاملDynamic server allocation for unstable queueing networks with flexible servers
This paper is concerned with the dynamic assignment of servers to tasks in queueing networks where demand may exceed the capacity for service. The objective is to maximize the system throughput. We use fluid limit analysis to show that several quantities of interest, namely the maximum possible throughput, the maximum throughput for a given arrival rate, the minimum arrival rate that will yield...
متن کاملFlexible disk scheduling for multimedia presentation servers
Objects composing a multimedia presentation need to be delivered based on the temporal relationships specified by the author(s). Hence, even discrete media objects (that do not normally have any real-time characteristics) have temporal constraints on their presentations. Composition of multimedia presentations can vary widely. Based on their composition, we can consider three broad categories o...
