Analytic queueing network models constitute a flexible tool for the study of network flow. These aggregate models are simple to manipulate and their analytic aspect renders them suitable for use within an optimization framework. Analytic queueing network m ...

In multiple-user communications, the bursty nature of the packet arrival times cannot be divorced from the analysis of the transmission process. However, in traditional information theory the random arrival times are smoothed out by appropriated source cod ...
We consider a queuing problem in which both the service rate of a finite-buffer queue and its rate of arrivals are functions of the same partially observed Markov chain. Basic performance indices of this device, such as long term throughput and loss rates, ...
This paper addresses the problem of configuring active queue management systems (e.g. WRED and RIO) for service level specifications in Internetworks. In particular, we focus on Assured Forwarding (AF) for non-responsive flows in Differentiated Services ne ...
Lattice networks are widely used in regular settings like grid computing, distributed control, satellite constellations, and sensor networks. Thus, limits on capacity, optimal routing policies, and performance with finite buffers are key issues and are add ...
An analytical methodology for prediction of the platoon arrival profiles and queue length along signalized arterials is proposed. Traffic between successive traffic signals is modeled as a two-step Markov decision process (MDP). Traffic dynamics are modele ...
We measure and analyze the single-hop packet delay through operational routers in the Sprint Internet protocol (IP) backbone network. After presenting our delay measurements through a single router for OC-3 and OC-12 link speeds, we propose a methodology t ...
Traditionally, the bursty nature of data sources is not taken in consideration by information theory. Random arrival times typically are assumed to be smoothed out by appropriate source coding, rendering any meaningful analysis of the end-to-end delay impo ...
The analysis and design of routing algorithms for finite buffer networks requires solving the associated queue network problem which is known to be hard. We propose alternative and more accurate approximation models to the usual Jackson’s Theorem that give ...
