Title
Optimal Batch Service of a Polling System under Partial Information
Abstract
We consider the optimal scheduling of an infinite.capacity batch server in a N-node ring queueing network, where the controller observes only the length of the queue at which the server is located. For a cost criterion that includes linear holding costs, fixed dispatching costs, and linear service rewards, we prove optimality and monotonicity of threshold scheduling policies.
