Optimal control of queueing systems with heterogeneous servers

An optimal policy to minimize the queue length in a multi-server controllable queueing system with heterogeneous servers has a threshold property, and it uses the fastest server if necessary (see [8] and [17]). This study gives a numerical description of optimal policies that minimize the operational cost for such a system.
