HEAVY TRAFFIC ANALYSIS OF A QUEUE WITH BATCH MMAP

A single-server queue with work conserving FIFO discipline is considered. The input process is a multiple marked. Markovian arrival process governed by a continuous-time finite state Markovian chain. The service time distributions of customers may be different for different arrival streams. The virtual waiting time is considered under a heavy traffic. The probability distributions of virtual waiting time and state of the random environment are asymptotically independent. The virtual waiting time is asymptotically exponential with the mean depending on the characteristics of the modulated process.

Keywords: single-server queue; FIFO; multiple batch Markovian arrival process; virtual waiting time; heavy traffic analysis.

In this paper we consider a single-server work conserving queue with FIFO discipline and the following characteristics. The arrival process is a multiple batch arrival flows of customers governed by a continuous time finite state Markov chain. The service time distributions of customers may be different for arrival flows. This model was considered for the first time in [1]. The most popular Markovian arrival flows of customers is introduced in [2]. There are two extensions of arrival process. One is batch introduced in [3] that allows batch arrivals and the other is marked introduced in [4] that explicitly represents possibly correlated process considered in this paper and in paper [1] is a further extension of MAP introduced in [2 -4]. We assume that the service time distributions of customers from respective arrival streams are different from one another.

In this paper we consider asymptotic behavior of a stationary distribution of the virtual waiting time and the state of a random environment under a heavy traffic. The asymptotic distribution of a stationary distribution of a virtual waiting time is an exponential with the mean depending on the parameters of random environment. In the present study we prove a heavy traffic limit theorem for steady state virtual waiting time for a model considered in [1]. We used analytical approach introduced in [6] which allows for a rigorous mathematical analysis of the stationary characteristics under a heavy traffic. The remainder of the paper is organized as follows. In section [2] we describe the model introduced in [1]. In section 3 we consider some preliminary results. Section 4 is devoted to main results. In section 4 we find the mean value of the virtual waiting time in a steady state, and there we show that the distribution of the environment becomes independent of the virtual waiting time in a steady state under heavy traffic conditions. The limit distribution of the virtual waiting time under heavy traffic conditions is an exponential distribution.

1. Model description

In this paper we consider a single sever queue with the following characteristics. Arrivals to the system are from К arrival streams. We call customers from the k-th (/с = 1.2.•■ ■. AT) arrival stream class к customers. Customer arrivals are governed by a continuous-time Markov chain Z(t). We assume that Markov chain Z(t) has finite state space S = {0,1,2, • ■ -,M\ and is irreducible. The underlying Markov chain stais in state i e S for an exponential interval of time with a mean value ц, 1. When the sojourn time in state i has

elapsed with probability g, j (0) the Markov chain Z(t) changes its state i to state j without arrivals. The chain Z(t) changes its state i to state j and n customers of class k arrive simultaneously with probability ak,ij(n)>(kG{h2,---,K}, n = 1,2, - - •) for convenience, let cr;V=0 for all ieS. Then for all izS

j=M k=K k

X (a<j(0) +XX<,<,j(n))= 1 We assume that service time of class k customers are i.i.d. according to a

j=0 k=1 n=1

distribution Hk (x) with a mean value hk, and a second moment vk. We need some notations to describe the arrival process. Let C denote an (M + l)x(M + l) matrix whose (i, j) -th element (/, /' e ¡0,1,2,- • -,M\) is given by c, ( = -ii7, if i = j and cij=oij(0)^., otherwise. Further, for k e {1,2,- - -, AT} we define Dk(«),(« = 1,2,•••) as an (M + l)x(M + l) matrix whose (/,/)-th element (/j'e {0,1,2,■•■M}) of Dk^j (n) is given by Dki . (n) = <ki . (n)^t. Thus the counting process of arrivals is characterized by the set of matrices \C\Dt (/?, )Jf(n2 ),•••, DK (nK )\. Customers arrive in the following way. When a state transition driven by D (n) occurs, n customers of class k arrive simultaneously. On the other hand, when a state transi-

k

tion driven by C occurs, no customers arrive. We define Dk(k g {1,2,---,K}) and D as Dk=^Dk(n),

n=i

k=K

D = X Dk, respectively. Note that the infinitesimal generator of the underlying Markov chain is given by

k=1

C + D and (C + D)e = 0, where e denotes a column vector whose elements are all equal to one. We denote by n, the stationary probability vector of the underlying Markov chain and therefore n satisfies the equation n(C + D) = 0 and ne = 1. Because of the finite state space and the irreducibility of the underlying Markov

k

chain, n is uniquely determined. Note that the arrival rate Xk of class k is Xk = XnnDk (n)e. We assume that

n=i

at least one element of Dk is positive, so that l.k > 0 for all k^{\,2,---,K}. Let pk denote the utilization

K

factor of class k customers, pk = Xkhk. Furthermore, we denote the overall utilization factor by p = Xp. If

k=1

the utilization factor p < 1 then all customers arriving to the system are eventually served. The goal of this paper is to derive the asymptotic distribution of virtual waiting time under a heavy traffic, i.e., when p < 1 and p , or s = 1 - p ^ 0. The virtual waiting time is equivalent to the amount of work in a system. Let V(t) denote a random variable representing the stationary amount of work in a system (the total amount of unfinished services of all customers in the system). We define F(x) as a (1,M + 1) vector whose j-th element represents P{V(t) < x,Z(t) — j}. The Laplace-Stiljes transforms (LST) of H(x) and F(x) are denoted by h (s) and ^(s) respectively. Applying the results in [5], we obtain the LST s) of a distribution function F(x)

9(s) = sF (0)(sI + C + D(s)f\ (1)

_ k K k

where D(s) = [e~sxdD(x) = XXD (n)K (s). We assume that ^t = ^0 and we will introduce the matrices

0 k=1 n=1

C0, Dk (n), D°k, D°, Q, Q0 by the equations C = XC0, Dk (n) = (n), Dk = lD°k, D = ID0, Q = C + D, Q = XQ0. Further we will also assume that all parameters except for X are fixed, and X increases

in such a way that s ^ 0, or X ^ X0 = (p0 )-1, where p0 = nXXnD°k («)\e.

2.Some preliminary results

Consider the continuous Markov chain Z (t) introduced in Section 1. Markov chain is with a finite space S = {0,1,2,, the infinitesimal matrix Q = C + D and a stationary distribution 7t = (7t0,7t1,---,7tM). The set of equations with respect to unknown a0,al,---,aM

K x K x

Qa = (nZ Z nDk (n)hke)e - Z Z nDk (n)hke (2)

k =1 n=l k =1 n=l

always has a solution, since the stationary distribution n is orthogonal to the right side of this equation. We will define matrices A and R. The matrix A is defined by the rows and columns with numbers 1,2,...,M of the matrix Q. The first raw and the first column of matrix R are equal to zero vectors, and next K rows and K columns are from matrix A 1. Then a matrix QR looks as follows: the first raw is equal to

(0, —L,..., —M) and the first column is equal to zero vector, and next elements form the identity matrix.

define the solution to equation (2) when a = 0. Dividing both side of (2) by X we get

Q0a = (nZ £ nD0 (n)hke)e -£ £ nDk (n)hke. (5)

k =1 n=1 k =1 n=1

And the solution to equation (2) is also a solution to equation (5). From (4) follows

k= 1 n=1 k= 1 n=1

3. The main results

The next theorem gives the mean value of a virtual waiting time in a steady state. Theorem 1. The mean virtual waiting time EV is given by the formula

TT K x K x

(1 -p)EV = -££nDk(n)vk,ne + n(£ZnDk(n)K -I)a + F(0)a, (7)

2 k=1 n=1 k=1 n=1

where a is a solution to equation (4) and

F(0)e = 1 - p. (8)

Proof. Consider a LST 5) of a vector F(x) = (F0(x),F(x),...,FM(x)) defined by the equation

9(s)(sI + C + D(s)) = sF (0). (9)

_ K x

where Re s > 0. We denote by D(s) the next sum ZZD (n)hn (s) and rewrite equation (9) to be

k =1 n =1

K x

9(s)Q = q*s)(ZZD*(n)(s)(1 -K(s)) - si) + sF(0). (10)

k=1 n=1

Post-multiplying both sides of equation (10) by vector e we have

K x 1 - hn (s)

F(0)e = 9(s)(I -ZZDk(n)-k— )e . (11)

k=1 n=1 s

Taking the limit s ^ +0 of both sides of (11) and taking into account that 9(0) = n we get equation (8). Differentiating both sides of (11) with respect to s at s = 0 yields

(EV0, EV1.....EVm )(I-Z Z nDk (n)hk )e = -Z Z nDk (n)vKne (12)

k=1 n=1 2 k=1 n=1

for the mean value of a virtual waiting time EVn — E(V(t); Z(t) = n). Post-multiplying both sides of the equation (10) by the vector a we obtain

K x 1 - hn (s) 9(s)Qa = s9(s)(ZZ nD (n)-— -1)a + sF(0)a.

k=1 n=1 s

After differentiating this equation with respect to s at the point s = 0 we have

K x

-(EV0,EV,...,EVm)Qa =-(ZZ nD(n)h -I)a + F(0)a. (13)

k=1 n=1

Now, summing (13) with (12) we get equation (7). Thus the theorem is proved. Theorem 2. Under heavy taffic assumption

a) the random variables sV(t) and Z(t) are asymptotically independent;

b) the random variable V (t) is asymptotically exponential with the mean

Z Z nDk0 (n)Vk ne+4(Z Z nD°k(n)hk-p°I)a. (14)

2P k=1 n=1 P k=1 n=1

where a is a solution to equation (2).

Proof: We consider equation (10)

9(s)Q = 9(s)(ZZDk (n)(1 - K (s)) - si) + sF(0).

k=1 n=1

Post-multiplying both sides of this equation by the vector e = (1,1,...,1)T , taking into account that Qe = 0 and from (8) we get

K x

9(s)(ZZDk (n)(1 - K (s)) - si)e + ss = 0. (15)

k=1 n=1

Now, post-multiplying equation (10) by the matrix R, which was introduced in section 3, from (3) follows the next equation

9(s) = 90(s) n + 9(s)(ZZZDk (n)(\ - h"k (s)) - si)R + sF(0)R . (16)

n0 k =1 n=1

Replacing the vector 9(s) in the right hand side of equation (16) with the help of (16) we have the next equation

9(s) = n[I + (Z ZZ Dk (n)(\ - hi (s)) - si)R] + sY(s) , (17)

n0 k =1 n=1

K x 1 - hn (s) K x

where Y(s) = s9(s)[(ZZDk(n)--I)R]2 + F(0)R [I+( ZZDk (n)((1 - hn(s)) - si)R]. Substituting

k=1 n=1 s k=1 n=1

(17) into (15) we can express 9 (s) as

90(s) = n 0-A(s)-, (18)

0 0 B (s) + B (s)

K x K x

Where A(s) = ss + sY(s)(ZZDk (n)(1 - K (s)) - si)e, B (s) = -n(ZZDk (n)(1 - hn (s)) - si)e ,

k =1 n=1 k =1 n=1

B2(s) = -n(ZZ ZZ Dk (n)(l - n) - si)R(ZZ ZZ Dk (n)(l - hk"(s)) - si^^ . Now, replace s by ss in

k=1 n=1 k =1 n=1

K k

A(s),B (s),B(s) and X increases in such a way that s ^ 0, X ^ X0 = (nXXD"(n)hke) 1 = (p0) 1. Further

k=1 n=1

A(ss) = s2s + s2s2Y(ss)(X X Dk (n) - I)e,

B(ss) = ss -nXXnDk(n)hkess + nXXD(n)(K(ss) + nhkss - 1)e = s2s + nXXD(n)(K(ss) + nhkss-1),

B2(ss) = -ns2s2(XT XDk(n)-1)R(XXXDk(n)^ -1)e .

k=1 n=1 ss k=1 n=1 ss

From (18) follows

where N = — *XXD°k (n>k,„ + — (XXnD°k (n)hk -p0I)R0 (XXnDl(n)hke -p0e). Using (6) we can

2p k =1 n=1 p k=1 n=1 k=1 n=1

transform the parameter N to the form

1 K k K k

N = AnXXD0(n)Vk,n + 4(XXnD°k (n)hk - p°I)a.

2p k =1 n=1 p k=1 n=1

Finally, from (16) and (17) we get that there exists

r \ r 90(ss) 1

lims^ 0 9(ss) = lims^ 0-n = n~—77.

n0 1 + Ns

Thus the theorem is proved.

4. Conclusion

We studied the virtual waiting time of a queueing model introduced in [1]. We used the analytical approach introduced in [6] and derived that the scaled virtual waiting time converges to an exponentialy distributed random variable in a heavy traffic. This limit random variable is independent of the state of the environment.
