Analysis of a Queueing Model with Flexible Priority, Batch Arrival, and Impatient Customers
ComputationIn this study, we consider a multi-server priority queueing model with batch arrivals of two types of customers, a finite buffer, and two input finite buffers for storing customers that cannot be admitted for service immediately upon arrival.

Multi‐Agent Reinforcement Learning for Joint Police Patrol and Dispatch
Naval Research Logistics (NRL), EarlyView.ABSTRACT Police patrol units need to split their time between performing preventive patrol and being dispatched to serve emergency incidents. In the existing literature, patrol and dispatch decisions are often studied separately. We consider joint optimization of these two decisions to improve police operations efficiency and reduce response time to ...

Improving Affordability and Accessibility for Socially‐Beneficial Services via Government Incentives
Naval Research Logistics (NRL), EarlyView.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.

Information Design for Early‐Stage Dose‐Finding Trials
Naval Research Logistics (NRL), EarlyView.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.

Different demographic drivers of recovery in two adjacent populations of a long‐lived bird of prey
Oikos, EarlyView.Understanding the demographic mechanisms underlying population decline or recovery is critical for conservation and management, yet similar population trends may arise from very different underlying processes. Comparing populations of vulnerable species groups like long‐lived raptors in different environments can reveal how species respond to change ...

Electronic Notes in Theoretical Computer Science, 1998 AbstractRewrite systems have successfully been used for the description of infinite-state systems. According to the interpretation of words as either sequences or multisets rewrite systems may describe classes of transition systems like e.g. BPA, PDA, BPP or Petri Nets.

Technical wildness: Modernity, romanticism, and the technocratic turn in Scottish rewilding
People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract Technical wildness is a new and increasingly influential culture of nature. This paper marks its emergence in Scotland in the early 2020s. Focusing on Scotland's rapidly evolving land management sector, the paper traces how private rewilding companies position science‐led land management and natural capital markets as the most effective ...

Practical considerations for pathologists when selecting digital pathology systems: an ESDIP guide
The Journal of Pathology, EarlyView.Abstract The implementation of digital pathology (DP) has been reported across academic, public, and private laboratory settings, providing valuable insights into workflow transformation. However, comparatively little guidance exists on how DP systems should be evaluated prior to acquisition and deployment.
