Big Jobs Arrive Early: From Critical Queues to Random Graphs

Abstract: We consider a queue to which only a finite pool of n customers can arrive, at times depending on their service requirement. A customer with stochastic service requirement S arrives to the queue after an exponentially distributed time with mean S-α for some [Formula: see text]; therefore, larger service requirements trigger customers to join earlier. This finite-pool queue interpolates between two previously studied cases: α = 0 gives the so-called [Formula: see text] queue and α = 1 is closely related to the e… Show more

“…Conditionally on , is defined as The graph is the dense analogue of the inhomogeneous random graph, also known as a rank-1 model; see e.g. [6] and [8]. In this model, corresponds to the weight associated with particle i and, loosely speaking, the closer is to 1, the more connections are formed by particle i .…”

“…Random processes on graphs play an important role in applied probability theory (see for example [1][2][3][4][5] and references therein). The study of these processes, being closely related to various applications, includes consideration of a whole range of different issues: combinatorial probability, discrete random sets, applied discrete mathematics, random lattices, etc.…”

“…They identify the limit processes explicitely, but these are considerably difficult to analyze and explicit formulas for quantities of interest are not available. In a series of works [1,4,2,3] the authors consider the ∆ (i) /G/1 queue in the heavy-traffic regime that is obtained by assuming the instant of peak congestion is at t = 0. Their results are also fCLT's for the queuelength process.…”
