Abstract
This paper is concerned with workload minimization in re-entrant lines with exponential service times and pre-emptive control policies. Using a numerical algorithm called the power series algorithm we obtain nearly optimal policies for systems with up to 8 queues. We also improve considerably the implementation of the power series algorithm.
