Motivated by emerging applications in workforce management, we consider a class of revenue management problems systems with reusable resources. The corresponding are modeled using the well-studied loss network systems. We use an extremely simple linear program (LP) that provides upper bound on best achievable expected long-run rate. optimal solution LP is used to devise conceptually control policy call selection (CSP). Moreover, analyze performance CSP and show it admits uniform guarantees....

Bin packing is an algorithmic problem that arises in diverse applications such as remnant inventory systems, shipping logistics, and appointment scheduling. In its simplest variant, a sequence of $T$ items (e.g., orders for raw material, packages delivery) revealed one at time, each item must be packed on arrival available bin pieces material inventory, containers). The sizes are i.i.d. samples from unknown distribution, but the known when arrive. goal to minimize number non-empty bins...

It was recently proved by Jelenković and Radovanović (2004) that the least-recently-used (LRU) caching policy, in presence of semi-Markov-modulated requests have a generalized Zipf's law popularity distribution, is asymptotically insensitive to correlation request process. However, since previous result asymptotic, it remains unclear how small cache size can become while still retaining preceding insensitivity property. In this paper, assuming are generated nearly completely decomposable...
