Departure processes from MAP/PH/1 queues

open access: yes, 1999
A MAP/PH/1 queue is a queue having a Markov arrival process (MAP), and a single server with phase-type (PH -type) distributed service time. This thesis considers the departure process from these type of queues.

Leverage Points for Meaningful Participation: A 5‐Point Framework From a Rural South African Landscape

open access: yesSystems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Alternative forms of natural resource management are required. Participation of local actors is necessary but not sufficient, for moving away from the conventional top‐down approaches. This paper develops a 5‐point framework for enabling meaningful participation in rural landscape governance.

Managing customer relationships through price and service quality [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper examines the ways in which a service provider's policies on pricing and service level affect the size of its customer base and profitability. The analysis begins with the development of a customer behavior model that uses customer satisfaction

Time-dependent analysis of virtual waiting time behaviour in discrete time queues [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Discrete time queueing models have been shown previously to be of practical use for modelling the approximate time-dependent behaviour of queue length in systems of the form M(t)/G/c.

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 ...

Transient bayesian inference for short and long-tailed GI/G/1 queueing systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
In this paper, we describe how to make Bayesian inference for the transient behaviour and busy period in a single server system with general and unknown distribution for the service and interarrival time.

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 ...

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 ...

Approximate analysis of single-server tandem queues with finite buffers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In this paper, we study single-server tandem queues with general service times and finite buffers. Jobs are served according to the Blocking-After-Service protocol.
