We characterize decreasing impatience, a common behavioral phenomenon in intertemporal choice. Discount factors that display decreasing impatience are characterized through a convexity axiom for investments at fixed interest rates. Then we show that they

Analysing Impatience in Multiserver Markovian Queues [PDF]
Reneging and Balking are practical aspects of customer impatience. In traditional queuing literature, customer impatience was rarely considered. However, for the last few decades, queuing theorists have been trying to integrate aspect of balking and ...

Engaging complex temporalities in environmental rhetoric
In this essay, we identify a temporal turn in environmental rhetoric. As field researchers, we have experienced different senses of time bumping against one another in intercultural, ecological situations. Although these micro-experiences of time provide

Good things come to those who wait-Decreasing impatience for health gains and losses.
Historically, time preferences are modelled by assuming constant discounting, which implies a constant level of impatience. The prevailing empirical finding, however, is decreasing impatience (DI), meaning that levels of impatience decrease over time ...

Waiting is ubiquitous yet painful. We find that the discomfort of waiting intensifies as the wait draws closer to its end. Using longitudinal studies that measured impatience for real-world events, we documented greater impatience closer to learning the ...

We consider a non-standard class of Markovian time: varying infinite capacity queues with possibly heterogeneous servers and impatience. We assume that during service time, a customer may switch to the faster server (with no delay), when such a server ...

Variant vacation queueing system with Bernoulli feedback, balking and server's states-dependent reneging [PDF]
We consider a single server Markovian feedback queue with variant of multiple vacation policy, balking, server’s states-dependent reneging, and retention of reneged customers.

In the coupon collector problem with $n$ items, the collector needs a random number of tries $T_n\simeq n\ln n$ to complete the collection. Also, after $nt$ tries, the collector has secured approximately a fraction $ζ_\infty(t)=1-e^{-t}$ of the complete collection, so we call $ζ_\infty$ the (asymptotic) \emph{completion curve}. In this paper, for $ν>
