A variety of problems in computing, service, and manufacturing systems can be modeled via infinite repeating Markov chains with an infinite number of levels and a finite number of phases. Many such chains are quasi-birth-death processes with transiti

Tackling the questions that systems designers care about, this book brings queueing theory decisively back to computer science. The book is written with computer scientists and engineers in mind and is full of examples from computer systems, as well

Capacity management, whether it involves servers in a data center, or human staff in a call center, or doctors in a hospital, is largely about balancing a resource-delay tradeoff. On the one hand, one would like to turn off servers when not in use (o

ACM SIGMETRICS Performance Evaluation Review. 49:3-7
This document examines five performance questions which are repeatedly asked by practitioners in industry: (i) My system utilization is very low, so why are job delays so high? (ii) What should I do to lower job delays? (iii) How can I favor short jo

We consider how to best schedule reparative downtime for a customer-facing online service that is vulnerable to cyber attacks such as malware infections. These infections can cause performance degradation (i.e., a slower service rate) and facilitate

The First-Come First-Served (FCFS) scheduling policy is the most popular scheduling algorithm used in practice. Furthermore, its usage is theoretically validated: for light-tailed job size distributions, FCFS has weakly optimal asymptotic tail of res

Queueing Systems. 97:3-37
Datacenter operations today provide a plethora of new queueing and scheduling problems. The notion of a “job” has become more general and multi-dimensional. The ways in which jobs and servers can interact have grown in complexity, involving paral
Multiserver-job systems, where jobs require concurrent service at many servers, occur widely in practice. Essentially all of the theoretical work on multiserver-job systems focuses on maximizing utilization, with almost nothing known about mean respo

The Gittins policy is a highly general scheduling policy that minimizes a wide variety of mean holding cost metrics in the M/G/1 queue. Perhaps most famously, Gittins minimizes mean response time in the M/G/1 when jobs' service times are unknown to t

This talk is about scheduling and load balancing in a multi-server system, with the goal of minimizing mean response time in a general stochastic setting. We will specifically concentrate on the common case of a load balancing system, where a front-e
