Estimation of Sojourn Time Distributions for Cyclic Semi-Markov Processes in Equilibrium

Biometrika, 1987
The EM algorithm is used to develop procedures for estimating the interoccurrence distributions when n independent and identically distributed cyclic semi-Markov processes, each being ergodic, irreducible and in equilibrium, are observed over finite windows. This work is an extension of the work of \textit{Y. Vardi} [Ann. Stat.

Approximation of sojourn-times via maximal couplings: motif frequency distributions

Journal of Mathematical Biology, 2013
Sojourn-times provide a versatile framework to assess the statistical significance of motifs in genome-wide searches even under non-Markovian background models. However, the large state spaces encountered in genomic sequence analyses make the exact calculation of sojourn-time distributions computationally intractable in long sequences.

Light Traffic Limits of Sojourn Time Distributions in Markovian Queueing Networks

Communications in Statistics. Stochastic Models, 1988
The results of the authors [Math. Oper. Res., to appear] are applied to calculate the derivatives \(W^{(n)}(x,0)\) of \(W(x,\lambda)=P_{\lambda}\) (sojourn time \(>x)\), \(x\geq 0\), and the light traffic limits for the sojourn time distribution of a Markovian queueing network with Poisson arrival process, with total arrival rate.

Effect of the handoff area sojourn time distribution on the performance of cellular networks

4th International Workshop on Mobile and Wireless Communications Network, 2003
In cellular systems there is usually an overlap cell coverage area (area covered by two or more base stations) which has valuable practical applications. Particularly, it permits the queuing of handover requests as a handover prioritization scheme. The modeling of the sojourn time in the overlap area is a topic which is not sufficiently explored, and ...

The distribution of sojourn times in finite absorbing Markov chains

Mathematical Biosciences, 1976
Abstract The distribution of the time spent before absorption in various states of finite Markov chains with time-independent transition probabilities is derived. All the moments of this distribution are calculated. The problem is of interest in population genetics.

Unimodality and Bounds of Modes for Distributions of Generalized Sojourn Times

1987
The distribution of the generalized sojourn time T for a birth-and-death process up to the first passage time to the state n, starting at the state m (m < n), is considered. The generalized sojourn time is the sum of the sojourn times at the states i, over i = 0,1,...,n−1, with a state-dependent signed weight. A main new result of the paper is that the

Sojourn distributions for particular customers in networks of queues

In this paper a study of the transient behavior of sojourn distributions of particular customers traversing serial networks of single-server queues is presented. It is motivated by the need to project completion times of critical customers in loaded, capacitated queueing systems.
