  1. L. Leskela, Stabilization of an overloaded queueing network using measurement-based admission control, 2004, submitted for publication (pdf)(bib)
    Abstract: Admission control is often employed to avoid congestion in queueing networks subject to overload. In distributed networks the admission decisions must usually be based on imperfect measurements on the network state. We will study how this lack of complete state information affects the system performance by considering a simple network model for distributed admission control. In this paper we will characterize the stability region of the network and show how the presence of feedback makes the stability of the system very sensitive to its parameters.
