We consider the dynamic scheduling problem of a classical single-server multi-class queueing system where the system manager does not have full knowledge about the cost/reward of the customers. One of the key results is that the Whittle index policy is optimal for a two-class queue if the system manager knows the distribution of the reward of one class and dynamically learns the distribution parameters of the other class.
