Abstract
We prove asymptotic upper and lower bounds on the asymptotic decay rate of per-session queue length tail distributions for a single constant service rate server queue shared by multiple sessions with the generalized processor sharing (GPS) scheduling discipline. The simpler case of a GPS system with only two queues needs special attention, as under this case, it is shown that the upper bounds and lower boundsmatch, thus yielding exact bounds. This result is established in this part (Part I) of the paper. The general case is much more complicated, and is treated separately in Part II of the paper [42], where tight upper and lower bound results are proved by examining the dynamics of bandwidth sharing nature of GPS scheduling. The proofs use sample-path large deviation principle and are based on some recent large deviation results for a single queue with a constant service rate server. These results have implications in call admission control for high-speed communication networks.
