Journal of Theoretical Probability, 2019 We introduce a new type of random walk where the definition of edge reinforcement is very different from the one in the reinforced random walk models studied so far, and investigate its basic properties, such as null/positive recurrence, transience, and speed. Two basic cases will be dubbed "impatient" and"ageing" random walks.

Analysis of Tandem Queue with Multi-Server Stages and Group Service at the Second Stage
AxiomsIn this paper, we consider a tandem dual queuing system consisting of multi-server stages. Stage 1 is characterized by an infinite buffer, one-by-one service of customers, and an exponential distribution of service times.
