Download or read book Some Explicit Formulas and Computational Methods for Infinite Server Queues with Phase Type Arrivals written by V. Ramaswami and published by . This book was released on 1978 with total page 65 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper discusses infinite server queues whose input is a Phase Type Renewal Process. The problems of obtaining the transient and steady-state distributions and moments of the queue length are reduced to the solution of certain well-behaved systems of linear differential equations. Sample computations are provided with as many as ten phases. The paper contains some useful explicit formulas and also discusses the interesting special case where the service time is also of phase type. The Phase Type Distributions include a wide variety of models such as generalized Erlang, hyperexponential (mixtures of a finite number of exponentials) as very special cases and possess great versatality in modeling a number of interesting qualitative features such as bimodality.

This book was released on 2004-12-03 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A unique introduction to the innovative methodology of statisticalflowgraphs This book offers a practical, application-based approach toflowgraph models for time-to-event data. It clearly shows how thisinnovative new methodology can be used to analyze data fromsemi-Markov processes without prior knowledge of stochasticprocesses--opening the door to interesting applications in survivalanalysis and reliability as well as stochastic processes. Unlike other books on multistate time-to-event data, this workemphasizes reliability and not just biostatistics, illustratingeach method with medical and engineering examples. It demonstrateshow flowgraphs bring together applied probability techniques andcombine them with data analysis and statistical methods to answerquestions of practical interest. Bayesian methods of data analysisare emphasized. Coverage includes: * Clear instructions on how to model multistate time-to-event datausing flowgraph models * An emphasis on computation, real data, and Bayesian methods forproblem solving * Real-world examples for analyzing data from stochasticprocesses * The use of flowgraph models to analyze complex stochasticnetworks * Exercise sets to reinforce the practical approach of thisvolume Flowgraph Models for Multistate Time-to-Event Data is an invaluableresource/reference for researchers in biostatistics/survivalanalysis, systems engineering, and in fields that use stochasticprocesses, including anthropology, biology, psychology, computerscience, and engineering.

Download or read book Introduction to Matrix Analytic Methods in Stochastic Modeling written by G. Latouche and published by SIAM. This book was released on 1999-01-01 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Matrix analytic methods are popular as modeling tools because they give one the ability to construct and analyze a wide class of queuing models in a unified and algorithmically tractable way. The authors present the basic mathematical ideas and algorithms of the matrix analytic theory in a readable, up-to-date, and comprehensive manner. In the current literature, a mixed bag of techniques is used-some probabilistic, some from linear algebra, and some from transform methods. Here, many new proofs that emphasize the unity of the matrix analytic approach are included.

Download or read book Applied Probability Computer Science The Interface Volume 1 written by Ralph L. Disney and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-07 with total page 513 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These two volumes are the Proceedings of the first special interest meeting instigated and organized by the joint Technical Section and College in Applied Probability of ORSA and THlS. This meeting, which took place January 5-7, 1981 at Florida Atlantic University in Boca Raton, Florida, had the same name as these Proceedings: Applied Probability-Computer Science, the Interface. The goal of that conference was to achieve a meeting of, and a cross fertilization between, two groups of researchers who, from different starting points, had come to work on similar problems, often developing similar methodologies and tools. One of these groups are the applied probabilists, many of whom consider their field an offspring of mathematics, and who find their motivation in many areas of application. The other is that group of computer scientists who, over the years, have found an increasing need in their work for the use of probabilistic models. The most visible area of common methodology between these two groups is networks of queues, Hhich by itself could have been the theme of an entire conference. FunctionQl areas which are, or are becoming, sources of exciting problems are computer performance analysis, data base analysis, analysis of communication protocols, data networks, and mixed voice-data telephone networks. The reader can add to this list by going through the papers in these Proceedings.

Download or read book Probability Markov Chains Queues and Simulation written by William J. Stewart and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2009-07-06 with total page 777 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Probability, Markov Chains, Queues, and Simulation provides a modern and authoritative treatment of the mathematical processes that underlie performance modeling. The detailed explanations of mathematical derivations and numerous illustrative examples make this textbook readily accessible to graduate and advanced undergraduate students taking courses in which stochastic processes play a fundamental role. The textbook is relevant to a wide variety of fields, including computer science, engineering, operations research, statistics, and mathematics. The textbook looks at the fundamentals of probability theory, from the basic concepts of set-based probability, through probability distributions, to bounds, limit theorems, and the laws of large numbers. Discrete and continuous-time Markov chains are analyzed from a theoretical and computational point of view. Topics include the Chapman-Kolmogorov equations; irreducibility; the potential, fundamental, and reachability matrices; random walk problems; reversibility; renewal processes; and the numerical computation of stationary and transient distributions. The M/M/1 queue and its extensions to more general birth-death processes are analyzed in detail, as are queues with phase-type arrival and service processes. The M/G/1 and G/M/1 queues are solved using embedded Markov chains; the busy period, residual service time, and priority scheduling are treated. Open and closed queueing networks are analyzed. The final part of the book addresses the mathematical basis of simulation. Each chapter of the textbook concludes with an extensive set of exercises. An instructor's solution manual, in which all exercises are completely worked out, is also available (to professors only). Numerous examples illuminate the mathematical theories Carefully detailed explanations of mathematical derivations guarantee a valuable pedagogical approach Each chapter concludes with an extensive set of exercises

Download or read book Principles of Inventory Management written by John A. Muckstadt and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-03-20 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inventories are prevalent everywhere in the commercial world, whether it be in retail stores, manufacturing facilities, government stockpile material, Federal Reserve banks, or even your own household. This textbook examines basic mathematical techniques used to sufficiently manage inventories by using various computational methods and mathematical models. The text is presented in a way such that each section can be read independently, and so the order in which the reader approaches the book can be inconsequential. It contains both deterministic and stochastic models along with algorithms that can be employed to find solutions to a variety of inventory control problems. With exercises at the end of each chapter and a clear, systematic exposition, this textbook will appeal to advanced undergraduate and first-year graduate students in operations research, industrial engineering, and quantitative MBA programs. It also serves as a reference for professionals in both industry and government worlds. The prerequisite courses include introductory optimization methods, probability theory (non-measure theoretic), and stochastic processes.
