Abstract
⺠We consider a model for minimum loss job routing to parallel finite-buffer queues. ⺠The model applies to load balancing in Web server clusters with QoS delay targets. ⺠A new index policy based on restless bandit (RB) indexation is proposed. ⺠New results for the index policy based on one-step policy improvement are given. ⺠The RB index policy is shown to be near optimal and to outperform other policies.
