This paper considers discrete-time two-class Ge $o^{X/}$G/1 queues with preemptive repeat priority. Service times of messages of each priority class are i.i.d. according to a general discrete distribution function that may differ between two classes. Completion times are derived for the preemptive repeat identical and different priority disciplines. By using the completion time, the stability condition for our system is investigated.d.

Quality of Service (QoS) in the Internet depends on queuing and sophisticated scheduling in routers. In this paper, we address the issue of managing traffic flows with different priorities. In our reference model, incoming packets are first classified based on their priority, placed into different queues with different capacities, and then multiplexed onto one router link. The fuzzy nature of the information on Internet traffic makes this problem particularly suited to fuzzy methodologies. We propose a new solution that employs a fuzzy inference system to dynamically and efficiently schedule these priority queues. The fuzzy rules are derived to minimize the selected Lyapunov function. Simulation experiments show that the proposed fuzzy scheduling algorithm outperforms the popular Weighted Round Robin (WRR) queue scheduling mechanism.

Priority queues can be used in applications such as scheduling, sorting, and shortest path network problem. Fibonacci heap, pairing heap, and M-heap are priority queues based on pointers. This paper proposes a modified M-heap with an way representation, called MA-heap, that resolves the problem mentioned in [1]. The MA-heap takes O(1) amortized time and O(logn) time to insert an element and delete the max/min element, respectively. These time complexities are the same as those of the M-heap. In addition, it is much easier to implement an MA-heap than a heap proposed in [5] since it is based on the simple traditional heap.

Priority queues can be used in applications such as scheduling, sorting, retrival based on a priority like gene searching, shortest paths computation. This paper proposes a data structure using array representation for double-ended priority queue in which insertion and deletion takes O(1) amortized time and O(logn) time, respectively. To the author's knowledge, all the published array-based data structures for double ended priority queue support O(logn) time insertion and deletion operations.

We propose a new priority discipline called the strict T-preemptive priority discipline, and derive the waiting time distributions of each class in the strict T-preemptive priority M/G/1 queue. Using this queueing analysis, we evaluate the performance of an opportunistic spectrum access in cognitive radio networks, where a communication channel is divided into time slots, a licensed primary user is assigned to one channel, and multiple unlicensed secondary users may opportunistically exploit time slots unused by the primary user. We also present a numerical example of the analysis of the opportunistic spectrum access where the arrival rates and service times distributions of each users are identical.

This paper describes a single-server queue where the server is unavailable during some intervals of time, which is referred to as vacations. The major contribution of this work is to derive general formulas for the additional delay in the vacation models of the single vacations, head of line priority queues with non-preemptive service, and multiple vacations and idle time.

In order to evaluate the performance of priority queues for future event list in discrete-event simulations, models representing patterns of enqueue and dequeue processes are required. The time complexities of diverse priority queue implementations can be compared using the performance models. This study aims at developing such performance models especially under the environment that a developed simulation model is used repeatedly for a long period. The developed performance model is based on multi-stage Markov process models; probabilistic patterns of enqueue and dequeue are considered by incorporating non-homogeneous transition probability. All necessary parameters in this performance model would be estimated by analyzing a results obtained by executing the simulation model. A case study with a war game simulation model shows how the parameters defined in muti-stage Markov process models are estimated.

The operation of a networked computing system (NCS), such as Internet, can be viewed as a resource allocation problem, and can be analyzed using the techniques of mathematical modeling. We define a general NCS and translate that setup into a model of an economy. The preferences of users are taken as primitives, and servers in the network are viewed as productive firms with priority input queues. Each sewer charges a rental price for its services by priority class. We characterize optimal system allocation, and derive formulae for supporting rental prices and priority premia such that the aggregated individual user demands do not exceed optimal levels and waiting-time expectations are correct. Our economic approach has the added benefit of providing a sound basis for evaluating NCS investment alternatives, using a process analogous to free entry and exit in free-enterprise economies.

We consider a priority-based multiclass queue with probabilistic feed-back. There are J service stations. Each customer belongs to one of the several priority classes, and the customers of each class arrive at each station in a Poisson process. A single server serves queued customers on a priority basis with a nonpreemptive scheduling discipline. The customers who complete their services feed back to the system instantaneously and join one of the queues of the stations or depart from the system according to a given probability. In this paper, we propose a new method to simplify the analysis of these queueing systems. By the analysis of busy periods and regenerative processes, we clarify the underlying system structure, and systematically obtain the mean for the sojourn time, i.e., the time from the arrival to the departure from the system, of a customer at every station. The mean for the number of customers queued in each station at an arbitrary time is also obtained simultaneously.

This paper proposes a fast and scalable priority queue architecture for use in high-speed networks which supports quality of service (QoS) guarantees. This architecture is cost-effective since a single queue can generate outputs to multiple out-links. Also, compared with the previous multiple systolic array priority queues, the proposed queue provides fast output generation which is important to high-speed packet schedulers, using a special control block. In addition this architecture provides the feature of high scalability.
