Setting staffing requirements for time-dependent queueing networks: the case of accident and emergency departments [PDF]
An incentive scheme aimed at reducing patients’ waiting times in accident and emergency departments was introduced by the UK government in 2000. It requires 98% of patients to be discharged, transferred, or admitted to inpatient care within 4 hours of ...

Dynamic server allocation for unstable queueing networks with flexible servers
This paper is concerned with the dynamic assignment of servers to tasks in queueing networks where demand may exceed the capacity for service. The objective is to maximize the system throughput. We use fluid limit analysis to show that several quantities

Inference for double Pareto lognormal queues with applications [PDF]
In this article we describe a method for carrying out Bayesian inference for the double Pareto lognormal (dPlN) distribution which has recently been proposed as a model for heavy-tailed phenomena. We apply our approach to inference for the dPlN/M/1 and M/

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

BAYESIAN CONTROL OF THE NUMBER OF SERVERS IN A GI/M/C QUEUING SYSTEM [PDF]
In this paper we consider the problem of designing a GI/M/c queueing system. Given arrival and service data, our objective is to choose the optimal number of servers so as to minimize an expected cost function which depends on quantities, such as the ...

Robustness in queueing systems
We study the robustness of performance predictions of discrete- time finite-capacity queues by applying the framework of imprecise probabilities. More precisely, we consider the Geo/Geo/1/L model with probabilities of arrival and departure that are no longer fixed, but are allowed to vary within given intervals.

Modeling and simulation of a telephone call center
We consider a system with two types of traffic and two types of agents. Outbound calls are served only by blend agents, whereas inbound calls can be served by either inbound-only or blend agents.

QUEUEING DISCIPLINES BASED ON PRIORITY MATRIX [PDF]
The paper deals with queueing disciplines for demands of general type in queueing systems with multivendor load. A priority matrix is proposed to be used for the purpose of mathematical description of such disciplines, which represents the priority ...
