The central system here can also be seen as a substtute for a so-called open system, whch s a complcated queueng system wth several queues and servers. In general: The processors n queueng networks are characterzed through In general: The processors n queueng networks are characterzed through (servng) statons. Each such staton s accompaned by a queue. In some cases more than one staton shares the same queue.

6 6 / 6 -- Communcaton etworks II (Görg) -- Closed queung systems E.g. short crcut the source and the snk. Then there are exactly K crculatng jobs. Thus no queue needs more than K places. Open networks can be computed more easly than closed ones. Closed networks are often better suted for modelng of real systems, as they allow the followng: mappng of manyfold ndependent resources sequental usage of resources by the jobs smultaneous usage of dfferent resources through dfferent users

7 6 / 7 -- Communcaton etworks II (Görg) -- Job classes n queung networks The selecton of job paths n a queueng network wth statons s done dependng on the transton probabltes. It leads to a stochastc routng matrx, that defnes the transton probabltes from staton to staton j. p p2 L p p2 p22 L p2 P= M M O M p p L p 2 L (6.0.) It s allowed to group the jobs, so that each group has ts own routng matrx. Such groups are called classes or chans. Each class can be descrbed by a Markov chan. All the classes combned together also buld a Markov chan. Classes are qute sutable, for example, to model jobs wth dfferent behavor, e.g. nteractve and non-nteractve type jobs. Queung networks can contan some classes, whch are open, whle other classes can be closed.

8 6 / 8 -- Communcaton etworks II (Görg) Open queung networks: Tradtonal Soluton method If the queung network can be modeled as a dscrete Markov process wth known state transton probabltes, then the statonary state probablty dstrbuton can be obtaned by formulatng and solvng a lnear system of equatons. Each state transton here corresponds to a job transfer from one staton to the other, a new arrval or a departure. If k = k, k 2,Kk denotes the state vector of a system wth server statons, where k ( =,2, K, ) s the number of jobs at staton, then we can ntroduce the followng notatons P(k) the statonary dstrbuton of jobs n the system k a state of the system and P(k) the correspondng state probablty, where each state s denoted through a state vector k.

9 6 / 9 -- Communcaton etworks II (Görg) -- Such processes satsfy the global equlbrum condton at the statonary stuaton; see also equaton (4.3a) k : P( k) (rate from k) = k' k P( k') (rate from k' to k) (6..2) along wth the total probablty condton P( k) = k (6..3) Ths system of equatons has a unque soluton for the statonary state probabltes (provded that the system s rreducble, aperodc and recurrent non-null). From ths result we can derve the performance measures such as: mean number of jobs n each staton load factor at each of the statons mean watng tme and the throughput of each staton. The soluton of ths system of equatons s only for lmted sze of state space wth less than states numercally possble (Gauss-Sedel-Method).

10 6 / 0 -- Communcaton etworks II (Görg) -- Jackson found n 963 that for a specfc class of these networks the soluton can be presented n product form: P( k) p ( k ) = = p ( k ) wth =,2, K, and k = 0,,2,K (6..4) s the boundary probablty for havng exactly jobs n staton. etworks havng the followng propertes are dentfed as open exponental networks or so-called Jackson etworks: all statons have M-dstrbuton for servce tme and FCFS strategy the network s open wth Posson arrvals (at the rate λ o ), see fgure 6.3 only one sngle class of jobs unlmted buffer space between statons unsaturated statons: λ < ε n k λ = λ0 + pjλj wth, j =,2, K, j= (6..5)

11 6 / -- Communcaton etworks II (Görg) -- A sngle staton has followng structure: Fgure 6.3: A staton of a Jackson network Thus we get; see equaton (5.6a): (6..6) = n k k n k n n p n k k n p k p for! (0) for! ) ( (0) ) ( ρ ρ

13 6 / 3 -- Communcaton etworks II (Görg) -- In so-called Jackson networks, the ndvdual statons behave under gven assumptons n such a way, that each of them functons as an solated M/M/n-model. Thus t holds from equaton (5.6b): p ( 0) = n A n A n!( n A ) j! + n j 0 = j (6..9) Other performance measures can be derved from statonary dstrbutons. Thus we get for the mean queue length (wthout the jobs that are beng processed): n n LQ = k n p k p ( ) ( ) = ( ) ( ρ ) ρ 0 2 n!( ρ ) k = n If we start agan from the model M/M/n wth n=, we get the known equaton (calculaton exercse!): (6..0) L Q 2 ( n = ) = ρ ρ (6..)

16 6 / 6 -- Communcaton etworks II (Görg) -- For the mean watng tme W of all jobs and for the mean system tme V we get from Lttle s law, see equaton (5.): L L = λ Q W = and V = W + or V (6..2) λ ε The mean number of jobs n the th staton L s gven by: L= n ρ+ LQ (6..3) For the case n = we agan get: ρ L = ρ ρ (6..4) For the total mean response tme of the network (sojourn tme n the network) can be obtaned by summng up the ndvdual values per staton L ρ V = = : λ λ ( ρ ) V where t holds: λ = = = λ λ 0 = L = λ = ρ ρ for total throughput (6..5) (6..6)

17 6 / 7 -- Communcaton etworks II (Görg) -- For the watng tme dstrbuton functon we get; see equatons (5.7), (5.8) P( T W n ( n ρ ) t) = p (0) e n!( ρ ) For n = we get: n ε ( ρ ) t for t 0 (6..7) P( T t) = e W ( ) ρ ε ρ t (6..8) e The relatve frequency of vsts to staton of an arbtrary job s gven λ 0 = p by e and equaton (6..5) wth, see equaton (6..6): 0 = λ λ λ e = p + e p 0 j j j= (6..9)

19 6 / 9 -- Communcaton etworks II (Görg) -- From λ = λ p 2 λ = λ 0+ p 2 + λ p 3 j= + λ p Ths system of equatons leads to the soluton: It further follows wth 3 λ = λ p λ = λ p the result. 4 j λ 4 j, ρ λ = µ follows : ρ = 08., ρ = 03., ρ = 06., ρ = , 3 3, λ = λ 4 λ = 20, λ 2 = 0, λ 3 = 0, λ 4 = 4 [ s ] Assume that we have to calculate the statonary state probabltes k = 3, k = 2, k = 4, k =. Because = k can take any value and ( ) P( k) = p( k, k, Kk ) = p ( k ) 2 = we get here. p( 3,2,4, ) = p (3) p2 (2) p3 (4) p4 ()

20 6 / Communcaton etworks II (Görg) -- k Wth n = we get p ( k ) = ( ρ ) ρ from equaton (6..6) and thus p 3) = 0.3, p (2) = 0.06, p (4) = 0.05, p () 0.6 ( = Thus, t holds: p(3,2,4,) = = ρ The mean number of jobs n staton s wth L = : ρ L = 4, L = 043., L = 5., L = The mean response tme s from V L = : λ V = 02., V = 0043., V = 05., V = For the total mean response tme, we get from V = Σ : λ L V =54. s

21 6 / 2 -- Communcaton etworks II (Görg) -- From e = p + e p 0 j j j= we can calculate the mean number of vsts made to staton by a job. As jobs arrve at rate λ from the outsde and result n a mean number of vsts to each of the statons, the frequency at whch staton s vsted s gven by λ e. Ths leads to: e = λ λ Thus, we get: e = 5, e = 25., e = 25., e = 2 3 4

23 6 / Communcaton etworks II (Görg) Closed networks Gordon and ewell have shown n 967, that the product form soluton can also be extended for closed networks. All assumptons relevant to Jackson networks contnue to hold, and n addton to that t s assumed that the number of jobs n the network s constant: = k = K The throughput at staton s now, see also equaton(6..5) λ = λ p j j j= because there are no external arrvals. (6.2.20) (6.2.2) We can treat any closed network as an open one, by takng the arrval rate to vary n such a way, that the number of jobs n the network reman constant (= K). The number of dfferent states n a closed system becomes equal to the number of possbltes to dstrbute K jobs among statons, and ths number s gven by

24 6 / Communcaton etworks II (Görg) -- n s + K = (6.2.22) By puttng e = λ n equaton (6.2.2) we get the lnear system of equatons: λ e = j= e p j j (see equaton (6..9)) (6.2.23) From the theory of Gordon and ewell (967), the statonary dstrbuton at equlbrum has the unque soluton: p( k, k2, K, k) = G( K) = x k ( ) b k wth x e = ε (6.2.26) where G(K) s the normalzaton constant, that comes from the condton that all the state probabltes should sum up to one (condton for total probablty). G( K) = k K = = = x k b ( k ) (6.2.27)

25 6 / Communcaton etworks II (Görg) --

26 6 / Communcaton etworks II (Görg) -- Ths constant also has the product form. However, t s not the product of state probabltes of ndvdual statons. Because of the constant number of jobs n the network, the number of jobs n ndvdual statons are now nterdependent. We state the assumptons made, before gvng the soluton for closed networks. Frst, we defne a help functon : b( k ) k! k n b k n n k ( ) = n! k > n n = b ( 0) = For n =, the soluton smplfes to: p( k, k2, K, k) = G( K) wth: G( K)= x k k = K = = = x k (6.2.28) (6.2.29) (6.2.30)

The goal of ths algorthm s to calculate the bottom value n the last column, because ths value g(k,) s equal to the normalzaton constant G(K). The values g(k,) = G(k) n the last column are also mportant, as they can be used to calculate performance measures bypassng the calculaton of state probabltes.
