Abstract
An approximate analytical method for estimating performance statistics of general closed queueing network models of computing systems is presented. These networks may include queues with priority scheduling disciplines and non-exponential servers and several classes of jobs. The method is based on the aggregation theorem (Norton's theorem) of Chandy, Herzog and Woo.

Solving Semi-Open Queuing Networks

TL;DR: This work first study an SOQN with a single class of jobs in tandem configuration and then extends the study to multiclass configurations, building a method based on an existing product-form approximation method for general, multiclass closed networks.

Stochastic Models for Order Picking Systems

TL;DR: New stochastic models are developed for the performance evaluation of several highly state-of-the-art warehousing systems that adequately describe and predict the consequences of variability in, e.g. order arrivals, and picking times on the performance of a warehousing system.

A queueing network model of an edge optical burst switching node

TL;DR: This work model the edge OBS node as a closed nonproduct-form queueing network, with multiple heterogeneous classes, and develops a suite of approximate decomposition algorithms to analyze it, which have a good accuracy and provide insight into the effect of various system parameters on the performance.

Approximate analysis of general queuing networks

TL;DR: An approximate iterative technique based on an application of Norton's theorem from electrical circuit theory to queuing networks which obey local balance determines approximations of the queue length and waiting time distributions for each queue in the network.
