contents We investigate congestion-aware control of quantum repeater nodes operating under stochastic traffic and finite memory coherence. Entanglement generation is modeled as a probabilistic process producing Werner states subject to depolarizing memory decoherence, while entanglement requests arrive according to Poisson and bursty ON--OFF processes. Using a queueing-theoretic framework, we couple physical-layer memory dynamics with congestion-dependent service behavior to analyze stability, delay, and fidelity trade-offs. Operating regimes are characterized in terms of the load parameter, showing that fixed cutoff policies impose a fundamental fidelity--latency trade-off together with strict stability limits. Queue-aware adaptive control strategies are then introduced that dynamically adjust memory cutoff times and the number of parallel entanglement-generation channels. Cutoff adaptation restores stability near critical load by trading fidelity for service capacity, whereas resource scaling increases capacity without degrading entanglement quality. Under bursty traffic, joint adaptation suppresses delay spikes while activating additional channels only during congestion periods. The framework is further extended to a two-user shared-resource scenario in which independent traffic flows compete for a common resource pool. Stability is determined by aggregate load, while adaptive resource redistribution stabilizes queues that diverge under fixed partitioning. These results provide a queue-aware congestion-control perspective for adaptive resource management in quantum networks.
