S. Ramesh et Hg. Perros, A multilayer client-server queueing network model with synchronous and asynchronous messages, IEEE SOFT E, 26(11), 2000, pp. 1086-1100
We analyze a multilayered queueing network that models a client-server syst
em where clients and servers communicate via synchronous and asynchronous m
essages. The servers are organized in groups such that they form a multilay
ered hierarchical structure. The queueing network is approximately analyzed
using a decomposition algorithm. Numerical tests show that the approximati
on algorithm has a good accuracy.
