Abstract:
Let N be an open queueing network where the servers have generally distributed service times (with possibly different means) and the outside arrivals to the servers are Poisson. Define N C,FCFS (respectively, N E,FCFS) to be queueing network N where each server has a constant (respectively, exponentially distributed) service time with the same mean as the corresponding server in N, and the packets are served in a First-Come-First-Served order. It has long been conjectured that for all networks N, the average packet delay in N C,FCFS is upper bounded by the average packet delay in N E,FCFS. In this paper, we present a counterexample to this conjecture.
