Modelling of non‐Markovian queuing systems
The purpose of this paper is to suggest a method and software for evaluating queuing approximations. A numerical queuing model with priorities is used to explore the behaviour of exponential phase‐type approximation of service‐time distribution.

Recursive Approaches for Multi-Layer Dividend Strategies in a Phase-Type Renewal Risk Model
In this paper we consider a risk model with two independent classes of insurance risks in the presence of a multi-layer dividend strategy. We assume that both of the claim number processes are renewal processes with phase-type inter-arrival times.

Isoscalar Giant Octupole Resonance ISGOR of 116Cd using Self-Consistent Skyrme QRPA
Collective models based on the random phase approximation (RPA) are widely used to accurately depict collective modes of response. They can quickly calculate the strength function for the entire nuclear mass range.

Inhomogeneous phase-type distributions and heavy tails [PDF]
AbstractWe extend the construction principle of phase-type (PH) distributions to allow for inhomogeneous transition rates and show that this naturally leads to direct probabilistic descriptions of certain transformations of PH distributions. In particular, the resulting matrix distributions enable the carrying over of fitting properties of PH ...

To address the problem that high-reliability and long-life complex products are susceptible to coupled fault mechanisms, and to address the challenge of constructing a macro fault behavior model for reliability evaluation, the reliability of a smart ...

On the Relation between Phase-Type Distributions and Positive Systems
The relation between phase-type representation and positive system realization in both the discrete and continuous time is discussed. Using the Perron-Frobenius theorem of nonnegative matrix theory, a transformation from positive realization to phase ...

Determination of Best Fit Probability Distribution and Frequency Analysis of Threshold Rainfall under different Climate Change Scenarios [PDF]
It is necessary to study and analyze the frequency of extreme rainfall events to determine the best-fit distribution that can predict the occurrence of the certain natural phenomena such as rainfall, flood, etc.

On Hitting Times for Markov Time Series of Counts with Applications to Quality Control
Examples of time series of counts arise in several areas, for instance in epidemiology, industry, insurance and network analysis. Several time series models for these counts have been proposed and some are based on the binomial thinning operation ...
