Optimal Pricing and Admission Control in a Queueing System with Periodically Varying Parameters
We consider congestion control in a nonstationary queueing system. Assuming that the arrival and service rates are bounded, periodic functions of time, a Markov decision process (MDP) formulation is developed. We show under the infinite horizon discounted and average reward optimality criteria, for each fixed time, optimal pricing and admission control strategies are nondecreasing in the number...

متن کاملAverage Optimal Policies in a Controlled Queueing System with Dual Admission Control
We consider a controlled queueing system where customers may be subject to two potential rejections. The first occurs upon arrival and is dependent on the number of customers in the queue and the service rate of the customer currently in service. The second which may or may not occur, occurs immediately prior to the customer receiving service. That is, after each service completion the customer...
متن کاملOptimal Control of a Two-Server Queueing System with Failures
We consider the problem of controlling a two-server Markovian queueing system with heterogeneous servers. The servers are differentiated by their service rates and reliability attributes (i.e., the slower server is perfectly reliable while the faster server is subject to random failures). The aim is to dynamically route customers at arrival, service completion, server failure, and server repair...
متن کاملOptimal Control of a Queueing System with Three Heterogeneous Servers
We study the problem of optimally controlling a three server queueing system. Arriving customers join a single queue, which is served by three servers, 8 1 , 52 and 53. The servers are exponential, but of different rates. The total expected time a customer spends in the system is to be minimized. We show that the optimal policy can be characterized by three thresholds, m3,mb and mi, such that: ...
