Delay analysis of the Max-Weight policy under heavy-tailed traffic via fluid approximations

We consider a single-hop switched queueing network with a mix of heavy-tailed (i.e., arrival processes with infinite variance) and light-tailed traffic, and study the delay performance of the Max-Weight policy, known for its throughput optimality and asymptotic delay optimality properties. Classical...
