Empirical Evidence of Firm States of Corporate Social Responsibility and Irresponsibility: Transition Frequencies and State Drivers

open access: yesBusiness Ethics, the Environment &Responsibility, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A common assumption is that firms become more socially responsible over time. Indeed, numerous conceptual papers focus on the issue of describing the CSR states that firms advance through. Yet, related empirical research remains limited and the assumption of steady progression across CSR states remains untested.

Stationary characteristics of unreliable queueing system with a batch Markovian arrival process

open access: yesInformatika, 2019
Unreliable queuing systems are of considerable interest both in mathematical terms and for applications. Systems with stationary Poisson flows of customers and breakdowns and exponentially distributed service and repair times are mainly considered.

Learning-based superposition for the analysis of feed-forward queueing networks with non-Markovian arrivals

open access: yesOperations Research Perspectives
The superposition of arrival processes is a fundamental yet analytically intractable operation in queueing networks when inputs are general non-renewal streams.

An s, S Production Inventory Controlled Self-Service Queuing System

open access: yesJournal of Probability and Statistics, 2015
We consider a multiserver Markovian queuing system where each server provides service only to one customer. Arrival of customers is according to a Poisson process and whenever a customer leaves the system after getting service, that server is also ...

Student profiles of change in formative assessment behaviour: Replication and evaluation for grade prediction

open access: yesBritish Journal of Educational Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract As students learn and practice new skills in university courses, their behaviour can change in response to competing demands and increasing content complexity. However, most metrics used to evaluate study behaviour focus on the number or sequence of activities rather than on the change of behaviour.

Performance approximations of Markov Modulated Poisson Process arrival queue with Markovian Service using matrix geometric approach [PDF]

open access: yesYugoslav Journal of Operations Research
Queue analysis of correlated work of the arrival and the service process are not available much in literature. This research paper applies matrix geometric approach to study the MMPP/MSP/1 queuing model under the quasi-birth death(QBD) process. Customers

Genetic Evaluation of Pure Line Laying Hens Based on Crossover Testing Data From Simulated Populations

open access: yesJournal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Commercial laying hen breeding programs aim to maximize the performance of crossbred animals. However, selection is usually based on data from pure lines raised in controlled nucleus environments, which may not fully predict the yields under commercial conditions.

Non-identifiability of the two state Markovian Arrival process [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
In this paper we consider the problem of identifiability of the two-state Markovian Arrival process (MAP2). In particular, we show that the MAP2 is not identifiable and conditions are given under which two different sets of parameters, induce identical ...

Two‐layer modelling of IEEE 802.11x channel occupancy

open access: yesElectronics Letters, 2023
Low power IoT communication signals (e.g., Bluetooth and ZigBee) may seriously suffer from the presence of high‐power co‐channel interference like wireless local area network (WLAN) signal.

Longevity, Health, and Housing Risk Management in Retirement

open access: yesThe Journal of Finance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Annuities, long‐term care insurance, and reverse mortgages remain puzzlingly unpopular to manage post‐retirement longevity, health, and housing price risks. We use a flexible life‐cycle model structurally estimated with a unique stated‐preference survey experiment of Canadian households to understand why. Key factors include high risk aversion,
