Abstract:

We study an asymmetric cyclic polling model with general mixtures of exhaustive and gated service, and with zero switch-over times, in heavy traffic. We derive closed-form expressions for all moments of the steady-state delay at each of the queues, under standard heavy-traffic scalings. The expressions obtained provide new and useful insights into the behaviour of polling systems under heavy-load conditions.
