This model is a formal approximation to a queueing network with an on-off input process. We study stochastic control problems associated with the long-run average cost, the infinite horizon discounted cost, and the finite horizon cost. In addition, we find a solution to a constrained minimization problem as an application of our solution to the long-run average cost problem. We also establish Abelian limit relationships among the value functions of the above control problems.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2008-08-08T20:41:16.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "60K25", "68M20", "90B22", "90B18" ], "keywords": [ "fractional brownian motion input", "stochastic network driven", "optimal control", "stochastic control problems", "long-run average cost" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 29, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2008arXiv0808.1299G" } } }
