Abstract

The problem of optimally controlling a multiserver queuing system is studied. Arriving customers join a single queue, which is served by N servers, S/sub 1/, S/sub 2/, . . ., S/sub N/. The servers are exponential, but of different rates. The goal is to determine the policy that minimizes the total expected time a customer spends in the system. It is shown that the optical policy is of threshold type, i.e., it activates server S/sub i/ only when m/sub i/ does not depend on the condition of other (slower) servers at the decision instant. The optimal control problem is reformulated as a linear program and a novel argument is used based on the structure of the constraint matrix, in order to establish the results.<>

异构服务器系统阈值策略的最优性
研究了多服务器排队系统的最优控制问题。到达的客户加入单个队列,该队列由N个服务器服务,S/sub 1/, S/sub 2/,…,S/sub N/。服务器呈指数增长,但速率不同。目标是确定最小化客户在系统中花费的总预期时间的策略。结果表明,光策略是阈值型的,即只有当m/sub i/在决策时刻不依赖于其他(较慢的)服务器的状况时,它才激活服务器S/sub i/。将最优控制问题重新表述为一个线性规划,并基于约束矩阵的结构采用了一种新的参数来建立结果。
