Asymptotic loss probability in a finite buffer fluid queue with heterogeneous heavy-tailed on-off processes (Q1413682)

Two finite fluid queues fed by a superposition of heterogeneous heavy-tailed on-off processes are considered. Both explicit and asymptotically exact results are obtained for approximating the loss rate and overflow probability under the assumption that the excess activity periods are intermediately regularly varying. The accuracy of the results is illustrated with some simulation experiments. This work is complementary to some results for the infinite buffer case.
