From the author: Using the 'shortest processing time' queue discipline results in long queues being quickly reduced as the short jobs are quickly pushed through the system. We approximate this effect under the 'first-come, first-served' queue discipline by having the service rate increase with the queue length. That is, instead of picking the shortest job, the server instead picks the first job, but then processes it at a higher rate. This new load-dependent queue is compared with the original queue both individually and within open queueing networks.
