Improving Affordability and Accessibility for Socially‐Beneficial Services via Government Incentives
ABSTRACT Many socially‐beneficial services, like dental care, suffer from a dual challenge: Low affordability for citizens and long waiting times due to insufficient provider capacity. We model a government's problem of designing subsidy policies to address this issue.

Nearly periodic behavior in the overloaded G/D/s+GI queue
Under general conditions, the number of customers in a GI/D/s+GI many-server queue at time t converges to a unique stationary distribution as t → ∞. However, simulations show that the sample paths routinely exhibit nearly periodic behavior over long time

Customer Waiting Time in Labor Department, Kuala Terengganu: A Queuing Approach
Businesses adopt queuing mechanism as it can improve efficiency and provide economic use of resources. Some business segment that normally adapted queuing theory include assessing staff scheduling, productivity, performance, and customers waiting time ...

A tandem queue with delayed server release [PDF]
We consider a tandem queue with two stations. The rst station is an s-server queue with Poisson arrivals and exponential service times. After terminating his service in the rst station, a customer enters the second station to require service at an ...

Information Design for Early‐Stage Dose‐Finding Trials
ABSTRACT To enhance enrollment rates in early‐stage dose‐finding clinical trials, we propose an information design approach, where the clinical investigator (CI) commits to an information releasing mechanism (IRM) based on the treatment's uncertain efficacy and toxicity to encourage patients to participate in the trial.

Fluid limits of many-server queues with reneging
This work considers a many-server queueing system in which impatient customers with i.i.d., generally distributed service times and i.i.d., generally distributed patience times enter service in the order of arrival and abandon the queue if the time before possible entry into service exceeds the patience time.

Sample path large deviations for queues with many inputs
This paper presents a large deviations principle for the average of real-valued processes indexed by the positive integers, one which is particularly suited to queueing systems with many traffic flows.

Marginal productivity index policies for scheduling a multiclass delay-/loss-sensitive queue [PDF]
We address the problem of scheduling a multiclass M/M/1 queue with a finite dedicated buffer for each class. Some classes are delay-sensitive, modeling real-time traffic (e.g.
