Abstract

This paper studies a multiclass queueing system with an associated risk-sensitive cost observed in heavy traffic at the moderate deviation scale, accounting for convex queue length penalties. The main result is the asymptotic optimality of a dynamic index policy known from the diffusion-scale heavy traffic literature as the generalized $$c\mu $$ c μ rule.
