Parallel Scheduling of Multiclass M/M/m Queues: Approximate and Heavy-Traffic Optimization of Achievable Performance

We address the problem of scheduling a multiclass M/M/m queue with Bernoulli feedback on m parallel servers to minimize time-average linear holding costs. We analyze the performance of a heuristic priority-index rule, which extends Klimov's optimal solution to the single-server case: servers se...
