Popis: In this paper, we present a condition to obtain instability for a class of queueing networks where the arrival rates in each server are constant and the departure rate in each server is a decreasing function of the queue lengths of other servers. Under a stronger assumption, that the departure rates are proportional to the queue length in each server, we obtain a characterization of the stability region through a system of equations. We start by defining the mathematical model and the queueing discipline we will study. We then obtain irreducibility and monotonicity for the dynamics, which allow us to state our two main results. We then use this result to obtain instability conditions for two queueing networks for which stability is known: a medium access algorithm and an interference queueing network.
Comment: Incorrect assumption in Theorem 3. We will change the definitions of the involved quantities to correct it
