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 …

Mobile edge computing (MEC), as a key component in the development of IoT and 5G
technologies, can provide extra computation resources in edge servers for mobile devices to …

Abstract Multiserver-job (MSJ) systems, where jobs need to run concurrently across many
servers, are increasingly common in practice. The default service ordering in many settings …

Mobile edge computing (MEC) is a new distributed computing paradigm where edge servers
are deployed at, or near cellular base stations in close proximity to end-users. This offers …

Multiserver queueing systems are found at the core of a wide variety of practical systems.
Many important multiserver models have a previously-unexplained similarity: identical mean …

Resource management challenges frequently manifest in systems and networks as tough
online decision tasks, for which the proper solution is dependent on an understanding of the …

We consider a multiserver queue where jobs request for a varying number of servers for a
random service time. The requested number of servers is assigned to each job following a …
