Buffer and throughput trade-offs in M/G/1/K queueing networks: A bi-criteria approach

Cruz, F.R.B.; Van Woensel, T.; Smith, J. MacGregor - In: International Journal of Production Economics 125 (2010) 2, pp. 224-234

The optimal design of real-life systems modeled as finite queueing networks is a difficult stochastic optimization problem. Besides being non-linear and including integer variables, different objectives often conflict with each other. For example, one conflicting pair of objectives includes...

Topological network design of general, finite, multi-server queueing networks

Smith, J. MacGregor; Cruz, F.R.B.; van Woensel, T. - In: European Journal of Operational Research 201 (2010) 2, pp. 427-441

The topological network design of general service, finite waiting room, multi-server queueing networks is a complex optimization problem. Series, merge, and split topologies are examined using an approximation method to estimate the performance of these queueing networks and an iterative search...
