A study on M/G/1 feedback retrial queue with subject to server breakdown and repair under multiple working vacation policy

open access: yesAlexandria Engineering Journal, 2018
In this paper, we consider a single server feedback retrial queueing system with multiple working vacations and vacation interruption. An arriving customer may balk the system at some particular times.

Parity and the Permissivism Puzzle: A Defense of Epistemic Options

open access: yesPhilosophy and Phenomenological Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Moral philosophers generally affirm that there are moral options: a single person sometimes has multiple morally permissible actions at a time. But epistemologists generally deny that there are epistemic options: a single person never has multiple epistemically permissible doxastic attitudes at a time. This asymmetry is striking.

Strategic Behavior of Customers and Optimal Control for Batch Service Polling Systems with Priorities

open access: yesComplexity, 2020
During the past few years, batch service systems have attracted considerable attention due to their wide area of applications. In this present paper, we study a special batch service polling system (the so-called Israeli queue) with priorities. Different

Visual Icons

open access: yesPhilosophy and Phenomenological Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Philosophers often characterize perception as image‐like. There is little agreement, however, about what constitutes an imagistic or iconic representation. This article identifies five signature properties of iconic representations endorsed in the philosophical and scientific literature: item‐richness, feature‐richness, spatiotemporal ...

Waiting for public transport services: Queueing analysis with balking and reneging behaviors of impatient passengers

open access: yes, 2014
Queues of batch arrivals and bulk service including balking and reneging behaviors of customers are commonly observed in real life. This study formulates queues of this type using compound Poisson processes and determines some key probabilistic measures.

Performance analysis of bulk arrival queue with balking, optional service, delayed repair and multi-phase repair

open access: yesAin Shams Engineering Journal, 2018
In this investigation, single repairable server queueing system with bulk input and state dependent rates is analyzed by considering the general distributions for the repair, delay to repair and service processes.

The effects of uninterrupted and interrupted sitting on blood pressure and arterial stiffness in patients with established coronary heart disease

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Sedentary behaviour is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease. In healthy adults, prolonged uninterrupted sitting acutely increases blood pressure (BP) and aortic stiffness; however, these effects can be mitigated with light physical activity interruptions.
