Perfect sampling of GI/GI/c queues [PDF]
Queueing Systems, 2018 We introduce the first class of perfect sampling algorithms for the steady-state distribution of multi-server queues with general interarrival time and service time distributions. Our algorithm is built on the classical dominated coupling from the past protocol. In particular, we use a coupled multi-server vacation system as the upper bound process and

The Issues of the Air-Fuel Ratio in Exhaust Emissions Tests Carried out on a Chassis Dynamometer
Energies, 2021 Vehicle exhaust emission tests use exhaust sampling systems that dilute the exhaust gas with ambient air. The dilution factor DF is calculated assuming that the combustion is complete, and that the engine is operated at a stoichiometric air-fuel ratio ...
