BOUNDS FOR FLUID MODELS DRIVEN BY SEMI-MARKOV INPUTS Academic Article uri icon

abstract

  • In this paper we consider an infinite buffer fluid model whose input is driven by independent semi-Markov processes. The output capacity of the buffer is a constant. We derive upper and lower bounds for the limiting distribution of the stationary buffer content process. We discuss examples and applications where the results can be used to determine bounds on the loss probability in telecommunication networks.
