Abstract The Internet of Things (IoT) in deploying robotic sprayers for pandemic‐associated disinfection and monitoring has garnered significant attention in recent research. The authors introduce a novel architectural framework designed to interconnect smart monitoring robotic devices within healthcare facilities using narrowband Internet of Things ...

Why Computing–Electricity Coordination Has Not Scaled in Practice
ABSTRACT The rapid growth of LLM‐driven artificial intelligence (AI) and data center deployment is imposing a new paradigm of massive and highly dynamic power demand on the grid. Volatility in both computing and renewable energy resources introduces severe challenges to power system operation.

Dynamic Server Allocation to Parallel Queues with Randomly Varying Connectivity [PDF]
Consider N parallel queues competing for the attention of a single server. At each time slot each queue may be connected to the server or not depending on the value of a binary random variable, the connectivity variable. The server is allocated to one of

Simulation of queueing systems with many stations and of queueing networks using copulas [PDF]
In this paper we will generate queueing systems with c stations where the inter-arrival time and the c service times depend through a c+1 copula C. We will consider two models: first when the customer does not know the order of service times for the free

Estimating Change Point in Single Server Queues [PDF]
The paper is concerned with the study of change point problem in the inter-arrival time and service time of single server queues. Maximum likelihood estimators of the parameters are derived.

Rare-Event Simulation for Infinite Server Queues [PDF]
Proceedings of the 2002 Winter Simulation Conference, pp 416-423We discuss rare-event simulation methodology for computing tail probabilities for infinite-server queues. Our theoretical discussion also offers some new simulation insights into the change-

Distributed computing for the reconstruction of multi‐terabyte tomographic X‐ray imaging datasets
As tomographic datasets from synchrotrons continue to increase in volume, so rises the challenge of reconstructing said data. Here we present a solution utilizing high‐performance computing capabilities to split the process into multiple smaller tasks, which can be solved without overwhelming a single compute node.

Climate Change and (Mal)Adaptation in Tourism‐Intensive Alpine Regions
Abstract Tourism, especially in winter, accounts for a large share of economic income in Alpine regions. At the same time, these regions are more severely affected by climate change, leading to shorter winter seasons and reduced snow cover. This presents a pressing issue for areas reliant on income from winter tourism through activities such as skiing.

Optimal Server Allocation in Zero-Buffer Tandem Queues [PDF]
We study the server allocation problem for tandem queues in the absence of intermediate buffer space. Servers are assumed to be homogeneous and non-collaborative. We provide policies to maximize the throughput.

The Gender of Fossil Fuels: Oil and Domestic Perils in Mandate Palestine
ABSTRACT This article explores the gender dynamics behind the rise of kerosene – an oil derivative – as the main domestic fuel in Mandate Palestine. It argues that these dynamics were constitutive in determining who began to use oil, where and for what purposes, in turn demonstrating that women in Palestine were the promoters and targets of a campaign ...
