A Stochastic Reliability Model of a Server under a Random Workload [PDF]
Traffic to any server is rarely constant over time. In addition, the workload brought by each service request is typically unknown in advance, and each request may bring a different workload to the server. Cha and Lee (2011) proposed a reliability model where each request brings an identical and constant workload. In this paper, we generalize the model

On the stochastic and asymptotic improvement of First-Come First-Served and Nudge scheduling [PDF]
Recently it was shown that, contrary to expectations, the First-Come-First-Served (FCFS) scheduling algorithm can be stochastically improved upon by a scheduling algorithm called {\it Nudge} for light-tailed job size distributions. Nudge partitions jobs into 4 types based on their size, say small, medium, large and huge jobs.

Study on the Job Stress of Miners
AbstractMine workers’ job stress is one of the key causes of serious mine accidents in China. In order to further explain and predict the job stress of miners and develop feasible intervention strategies, this paper presents 7 pressure sources for miners’ occupation are proposed and a hypothesis model for miners’ working pressure is established.
