Abstract

We consider a new idea for a storage model on n nodes, namely stability of shape. These nodes support K neighborhoods S (i) aS,aEuro parts per thousand[1, ..., n] and items arrive at the S (i) as independent Poisson streams with rates lambda (i) , i = 1, ... , K . Upon arrival at S (i) an item is stored at node j aaEuro parts per thousand S (i) where j is determined by some policy. Under natural conditions on the lambda (i) we exhibit simple local policies such that the multidimensional process describing the evolution of the number of items at each node is positive recurrent (stable) in shape.
