Scaling limits for infinite-server systems in a random environment

This paper studies the effect of an overdispersed arrival process on the performance of an infinite-server system. In our setup, a random environment is modeled by drawing an arrival rate Λ from a given distribution every Δ time units, yielding an i.i.d. sequence of arrival rates Λ<sub>1</s...
