Abstract--In this paper we apply the Gittins optimality result
to characterize the optimal scheduling discipline in a multi-class
M/G/1 queue. We apply the general result to several cases of
practical interest where the service time distributions belong to
the set of decreasing hazard rate distributions, like Pareto or
hyper-exponential. When there is only one class it is known
