This paper analyzes a discrete-time bulk-service queue with probabilistic bulk size, where the service process is interrupted by a Markov chain. We study the joint probability generating function of system occupancy and the state of the Markov chain. We derive several performance measures of interest, including average system occupancy and delay distribution.

This paper presents basic queueing analysis contributing to teletraffc theory, with commonly accessible mathematical tools. This paper studies queueing systems with bulk arrivals. It is assumed that the number of arrivals and the expected number of arrivals in each bulk are bounded by some constraints B and (equation omitted), respectively. Subject to these constraints, convexity argument is used to show that the bulk-size probability distribution that results in the worst mean queue performance is an extremal distribution with support {1, B} and mean equal to A. Furthermore, from the viewpoint of security against denial-of-service attacks, this distribution remains the worst even if an adversary were allowed to choose the bulk-size distribution at each arrival instant as a function of past queue lengths; that is, the adversary can produce as bad queueing performance with an open-loop strategy as with any closed-loop strategy. These results are proven for an arbitrary arrival process with bulk arrivals and a general service model.

We analyze bulk service $M/G^{b}/1$ queues using the arrival time approach of Chae et al. (2001). As a result, the decomposition property of the M/G/1 queue with generalized vacations is extended to the $M/G^{b}/1$ queue in which the batch size is exactly a constant b. We also demonstrate that the arrival time approach is useful for relating the time-average queue length PGF to that of the departure time, both for the $M/G^{b}/1$queue in which the batch size is as big as possible but up to the maximum of constant b. The case that the batch size is a random variable is also briefly mentioned.

In this paper, We develop performance evaluation model for Twin fork Automated Storage/Retrieval systems. The system is modeled as a modified bulk service queueing system consisting of one exponential server with limited system capacity. The differance between this model and general bulk service queueing model is the inequality of transition service rate of each stage. The ejective of this model is to provide system characteristics for Twin fork AS/R system design problems, which are the number of customers in system, wait time in system and queue, the system queue size.

We consider a finite-buffer discrete-time queueing system with fixed-size bulk-service discipline: Geo/ $G^{B}$1/K＋B. The main purpose of this paper is to present a performance analysis of this system that has a wide range of applications in Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) and other related telecommunication systems. For this purpose, we first derive the departure-epoch probabilities based on the embedded Markov chain method. Next, based on simple rate in and rate out argument, we present stable relationships for the steady-state probabilities of the queue length at different epochs: departure, random, and arrival. Finally, based on these relationships, we present various useful performance measures of interest such as the moments of number of packets in the system at three different epochs and the loss probability. The numerical results are presented for a deterministic service-time distribution - a case that has gained importance in recent years.s.

Providing web services to users has become expensive in recent times. For better web services, a web server is provided with high-performance technology. To achieve great web service experiences, tools such as general-purpose graphics processing units (GPGPUs), artificial intelligence, high-performance computing, and three-dimensional simulation are widely used. However, graphics processing units (GPUs) are used in high-speed operations and have limited general applications. In this study, we developed a task queue in a GPU to improve the performance of a web service using a multiprocessor and studied how to receive and process user requests in bulk. We propose the use of a GPGPU-based task queue to process user requests more than GPGPU based a central processing unit thread, and to process more GPU threads on task queue at about 136% to 233%, and proved that the proposed method is effective for web service.

We analyze a single server bulk input queue with optional server vacations under a single vacation policy and balking phenomenon. The service times of the customers as well as the vacation times of the server have been assumed to be arbitrary (general). We further assume that not all arriving batches join the system during server's vacation periods. The supplementary variable technique is employed to obtain time-dependent probability generating functions of the queue size as well as the system size in terms of their Laplace transforms. For the steady state, we obtain probability generating functions of the queue size as well as the system size, the expected number of customers and the expected waiting time of the customers in the queue as well as the system, all in explicit and closed forms. Some special cases are discussed and some known results have been derived.

We present a discrete-time version of the distributional Little's law, of which the continuous-time version is well known. Then we extend it to the queue in which two or more customers may depart at the same time. As a demonstration, we apply this law to various discrete-time queues such as the standard Geom/G/1 queue, the Geom/G/1 queue with vacations, the multi-server Geom/D/c queue, and the bulk-service Geom/$G^b$/1 queue. As a result, we obtain the probability generating functions of the numbers in system/queue and the waiting times in system/queue for those queues.

In this paper, we propose a new scheduling method that can guarantee reliable jitter by minimizing the queue length variation in the streaming service provisioning such as IPTV and VoD. The amount of traffic to be delivered within a certain time is very fluid because MPEG-4 and H.264 encoders use VBR(Variable Bit Rate) for delivering video streaming traffic. This VBR characteristic increases the end-to-end propagation delay variation when existing scheduling methods are used for delivering video frames. Therefore, we propose the new scheduling method that can minimize change rate of queue length by adaptively controling service rate taking into account the size of bulk incoming packets and arrival rate for bulk streaming traffic. Video frames can be more reliably transmitted through the minimization of the queue length variation using the proposed method. We use the queueing model and also carry out OPNET simulation to validate the proposed method.
