Product forms for FCFS queueing models with arbitrary server-job compatibilities: an overview
In recent years, a number of models involving different compatibilities between jobs and
servers in queueing systems, or between agents and resources in matching systems, have …

The cost of impatience in dynamic matching: Scaling laws and operating regimes
A Kohlenberg, I Gurvich - Management Science, 2024 - pubsonline.informs.org
We study matching queues with abandonment. The simplest of these is the two-sided queue
with servers on one side and customers on the other, both arriving dynamically over time …

Matched queues with flexible and impatient customers
HL Liu, QL Li - Methodology and Computing in Applied Probability, 2023 - Springer
In this paper, we consider a double-ended queue with First-Come-First-Match discipline
(also known as matched queues) under customers' flexible and impatient behaviors. Such a …
