No critical loading condition is assumed. Generally, the limit process does not have trajectories in the Skorohod space. We give conditions for the convergence to hold in the topology of compact convergence. Some new results for an infinite server are also provided.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2010-01-13T13:38:43.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "60K25", "60F17", "60G15", "60G44" ], "keywords": [ "many-server queue", "heavy traffic", "heavy-traffic limit theorem", "compact convergence", "infinite server" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
