A Two-Server Queue with Interdependence between Arrival and Service Processes

open access: yesMathematics, 2023
In this paper, we analyse a queueing system with two servers where the arrival and service processes are interdependent. The evolution of these processes is governed by transitions on the product space of three Markov chains, which are descriptors of the

Do Sojourn Effects on Personality Trait Changes Last? A Five‐Year Longitudinal Study

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Personality, EarlyView., 2020
Abstract This study examined sojourners' long‐term personality trait changes over five years, extending previous research on immediate sojourn effects. A sample of German students (N = 1095) was surveyed thrice (T1–T3) over the course of an academic year.

Sequentially calibrating a Bayesian microsimulation model to incorporate new information and assumptions

open access: yesBMC Medical Informatics and Decision Making, 2022
Background Microsimulation models are mathematical models that simulate event histories for individual members of a population. They are useful for policy decisions because they simulate a large number of individuals from an idealized population, with ...

Quantifying the potential benefits of early detection for pancreatic cancer through a counterfactual simulation modeling analysis

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
The benefits of cancer early detection depend on various factors, including cancer type, screening method performance, stage at diagnosis, and subsequent treatment. Although numerous studies have evaluated the effectiveness of screening interventions for

On the Optimal Input Rate in Queues with Batch Service

open access: yesAxioms, 2023
In recent years, queuing systems with batch service are emerging as powerful and flexible mathematical models in different frameworks. In this paper, we consider a single server queuing system with Poissonian arrivals, infinite buffers, and a constant ...

Optimal Service Rate in Cognitive Radio Networks With Different Queue Length Information

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2018
Cognitive radio (CR) technology effectively overcomes spectrum inefficiency by providing the capability that unlicensed users can share the radio frequency spectrum with licensed users. In this paper, we consider a CR system with heterogeneous users.

A note on the optimal pricing strategy in the discrete-time Geo/Geo/1 queuing system with sojourn time-dependent reward

open access: yesOperations Research Perspectives, 2017
This work studies the optimal pricing strategy in a discrete-time Geo/Geo/1 queuing system under the sojourn time-dependent reward. We consider two types of pricing schemes.

The Delay Time Profile of Multistage Networks with Synchronization

open access: yesMathematics, 2023
The interaction between projects and servers has grown significantly in complexity; thus, applying parallel calculations increases dramatically. However, it should not be ignored that parallel processing gives rise to synchronization constraints and ...

Symptom lead time distribution in lung cancer:natural history and prospects for early diagnosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
BACKGROUND: Before their diagnosis, patients with cancer present in primary care more frequently than do matched controls. This has raised hopes that earlier investigation in primary care could lead to earlier stage at diagnosis.METHODS: We re-analysed ...
