Applications of queueing network models have multiplied in the last
generation, including scheduling of large manufacturing systems,
control of patient flow in health systems, load balancing in cloud
computing, and matching in ride sharing. These problems are too
large and complex for exact solution, but their scale allows
approximation. This book is the first comprehensive treatment of
fluid scaling, diffusion scaling, and many-server scaling in a
single text presented at a level suitable for graduate students.
Fluid scaling is used to verify stability, in particular treating
max weight policies, and to study optimal control of transient
queueing networks. Diffusion scaling is used to control systems in
balanced heavy traffic, by solving for optimal scheduling,
admission control, and routing in Brownian networks. Many-server
scaling is studied in the quality and efficiency driven
Halfin-Whitt regime and applied to load balancing in the
supermarket model and to bipartite matching in ride-sharing
applications.
