Abstract

We present methods for analyzing continuous-time multi-channel queueing systems with Gated, Exhaustive, or Globally-Gated service regimes, and with Cyclic, Hamiltonian or Elevator-type polling mechanisms. We discuss issues of dynamically controlling the server's order of visits to the channels, and derive easily implementable index-type rules that optimize system's performance. Future directions of research are indicated.
