Abstract
In great generality, the basic steady-state distributions in theBMAP/G/l queue have asymptotically exponential tails. Here we develop asymptotic expansions for the asymptotic decay rates of these tail probabilities in powers of one minus the traffic intensity. The first term coincides with the decay rate of the exponential distribution arising in the standard heavy-traffic limit. The coefficients of these heavy-traffic expansions depend on the moments of the service-time distribution and the derivatives of the Perron-Frobenius eigenvalue δ(z) of the BMAP matrix generating function D (z) at z = 1. We give recursive formulas for the derivatives δ(κ) (1). The asymptotic expansions provide the basis for efficiently computing the asymptotic decay rates as functions of the traffic intensity, i.e., the caudal characteristic curves. The asymptotic expansions also reveal what features of the model the asymptotic decay rates primarily depend upon. In particular, δ(z) coincides with the limiting time-average of the ...
