Markovian queueing systems represent a cornerstone in the study of stochastic processes, offering a robust framework for modelling the random nature of service and arrival processes across diverse ...

Queueing systems with working vacations refer to mathematical models in which service providers (servers) intermittently operate at a reduced capacity rather than coming to a complete standstill ...

Advances in Applied Probability, Vol. 36, No. 1 (Mar., 2004), pp. 293-317 (25 pages) We consider a processing system, composed of several parallel queues and a processor, which operates in a ...

Queuing techniques are systems put in place to serve customers in an orderly manner. Queuing techniques prevent chaos in customer service by ensuring the company can serve one at a time, on an ...

The Journal of the Operational Research Society, Vol. 65, No. 2 (FEBRUARY 2014), pp. 278-290 (13 pages) A combination of discrete-time modelling and theoretical analysis is used to develop an ...

"In the analysis of a physical system, the first step is to derive a mathematical model for the system. However, it is important to note that mathematical models, in general, may assume many different ...

Ever since Google announced that access to its then-new email application Gmail would be invite-only at first, startup founders have been angling to reproduce that same kind of fervor for their own ...
