Abstract
The ergodic or long run average cost control problem for diffusions is one of the classical problems of stochastic control that still eludes a completely satisfactory treatment. This is certainly true for the setting in which the systems to be controlled is modeled by the solution of a switching stochastic differential equation with reflection (SSDER). In this paper, we advance in this rather difficult problem by setting forth preliminary results for the unidimensional case. Besides carving out a numerical method, our treatment of the ergodic control in this scenario straddles issues of existence and uniqueness of solution of the SSDER and a verification theorem for the associated HJB equation. We conclude by illustrating the effectiveness of the method considering the control of energy consumption in a large parallel processing computer system composed of one queue and several processing stations.
