Minimal impact of spotted hyenas on livestock and endangered species in a prey‐rich ecosystem

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
The diet of large carnivores is of great interest to conservation managers, as it can reveal the extent of human–carnivore conflict and the impact of carnivores on species of high conservation priority. Metabarcoding of environmental DNA can identify species and is often more reliable than observational or morphological methods, particularly when it ...

Queues with Working Vacations: A Survey

open access: yesMathematics
In this paper, we present an extensive literature review on queueing systems with working vacations. The concept of a working vacation generalises the concept of server vacations, which are time periods during which the server is absent and cannot serve ...

Simulation of queueing systems with many stations and of queueing networks using copulas

open access: yes
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

Enabling pandemic‐resilient healthcare: Narrowband Internet of Things and edge intelligence for real‐time monitoring

open access: yesCAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
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 ...

Differential evolution to solve the lot size problem. [PDF]

open access: yes
An Advanced Resource Planning model is presented to support optimal lot size decisions for performance improvement of a production system in terms of either delivery time or setup related costs. Based on a queueing network, a model is developed for a mix

Dynamic Resource Allocation Optimisation and Security‐Resilient Control for Bandwidth‐Limited Network Control Systems With Data Conflicts

open access: yesCAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Networked control systems (NCSs) often suffer from performance degradation due to limited communication bandwidth, which can cause data transmission conflicts and packet loss. Existing scheduling strategies may fail to simultaneously meet the real‐time requirements and the importance of multisensor data, and they are particularly vulnerable ...

Queues as Processes

open access: yesElectronic 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.

The impact of time limitation: insights from a queueing experiment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We experimentally explore the effects of time limitation on decision making. Under different time allowance conditions, subjects are presented with a queueing situation and asked to join one of the two given queues.

Strategic Queueing Behavior of Two Groups of Patients in a Healthcare System

open access: yesMathematics
Long waiting times and crowded services are the current medical situation in China. Especially in hierarchic healthcare systems, as high-quality medical resources are mainly concentrated in comprehensive hospitals, patients are too concentrated in these ...
