In this paper, we consider the problem of admission control for a stream of jobs arriving at two single-server queues working in parallel, with general inter-arrival time distribution and exponential service-time distribution. The jobs are ...

In this study, we aim to optimize hospital bed allocation to enhance medical service efficiency and quality. We developed an optimization model and algorithms considering cross-departmental bed-sharing costs, patient waiting costs, and the impact ...

We develop an efficient reinforcement learning algorithm that learns the optimal admission control policy in a partially observable queueing network. Specifically, only the arrival and departure times from the network are observable, optimality ...$\stackrel{}{}\left(\sqrt{\mathrm{}}\right)$$\mathrm{}\mathrm{}$$\mathrm{}$$\mathrm{}$$\stackrel{}{}\left(\sqrt{\mathit{}}\right)$$\mathrm{}$

In multi-provider 5G/6G networks, service delegation enables administrative domains to federate in provisioning NFV network services. Admission control in selecting the appropriate domain for service deployment, without prior knowledge ...

If each node in a wireless network has information about only its 1-hop neighborhood, then what are the limits to performance? This problem is considered for wireless networks where each communication link has a minimum bandwidth ...

The Edge Cloud (EC) architecture aims at providing the compute power at the edge of the network to minimize the latency necessary for the Internet of Things (IoT). However, an EC endures a limited compute capacity in contrast with the back-end ...

Device-to-device (D2D) communication has become a key complementary technology in emerging next-generation communication paradigm. It offers a number potential use cases including peer to peer communication, cellular offloading, device-relaying ...

Conventional micro-batch streaming systems introduce high tail latency for the following two reasons. First, they trigger data processing on a fixed time interval, without taking into account the data ingestion rate and data analysis processing ...

This paper proposes an energy-efficient framework to provide a solution to the joint admission control, mode selection, and energy-efficient resource (channel and power) allocation (JACMSEERA) problem for D2D communication underlaying cellular ...

Priority Aware mechanism utilizing connection-oriented approach doesn't offer uniform throughput and low end-to-end delay when the velocity of mobile nodes is extended beyond 2 m/s. On the other hand, when a connection-less approach is utilized, ...

Relaying technology is one of the LTE-A issue that is considered the area of concern of several researches. Thus LTE-Advanced with relays uses several enhanced techniques in order to improve network performance like cell throughput enhancement and ...

Prior algorithms that have been proposed for the uniprocessor implementation of systems of elastic tasks have computational complexity quadratic ($O(n^2)$) in the number of tasks n, for both initialization and for admitting new tasks during run-time. ...$$

Mobile edge computing (MEC) is an emerging technology recognized as an effective solution to guarantee the Quality of Service for computation-intensive and latency-critical traffics. In MEC system, the mobile computing, network control and storage ...

Providing connectivity to high-density traffic demand is one of the key promises of future wireless networks. The open radio access network (O-RAN) is one of the critical drivers ensuring such connectivity in heterogeneous networks. Despite ...

In this paper, we are concerned with scheduling a mix of high-criticality (HI) and low-criticality (LO) tasks under Earliest Deadline First (EDF) on one processor. To this end, the system implements two operation modes, LO and HI mode. In LO mode, ...

A fault management system contains managers that detect faults as well as initiate recovery actions. Such management systems often come in an architecture that is not only a distributed one but also decoupled from the applications. Although an ...

Admission control and service rate speedup may be used during periods of congestion to minimize customer waiting in different service settings. In a healthcare setting, this can mean sending patients to alternative care facilities that may take ...

Operation of a sensor node of a wireless sensor network with energy harvesting is described by the single-server queue. Customers and energy units arrive according to the Markov arrival processes (MAP) and are stored in the corresponding buffers. ...

Call Admission Control is a central mechanism for assurance of quality of service in telephony. While CAC is integrated into Public Switched Telephony Network (PSTN), its application to voice over IP in a corporate environment is ...

High-altitude platforms (HAPs) are quasi-stationary aerial wireless communications platforms meant to be located in the stratosphere, to provide wireless communications and broadband services. They have the ability to fly on demand to temporarily ...
