Abstract

Average memory occupancy and congestion in computer system or communication system may be reduced further if new jobs are admitted only when the number of jobs queued at CPU is below a certain threshold, run queue cutoff (RQ). In our previous paper we showed that response time of a job is invariant with respect to RQ if jobs do not communicate each other. In this paper, we prove that the invariance property by considering the evolution of the queue lengths as point processes. We also present an approximate method for the delay due to context switching under time slicing.
