These queues merged into single queues at the remaining stages. The parallel queues offer services that are different from one another and customers arrive to join the queue that offer services that they need. The mathematical model was developed assuming an M/M/1 queue system and the measures of effectiveness were derived. The model was applied to solve the problem of customer congestion in a restaurant in the city of Ibadan, Nigeria that serves three different local delicacies. The three local delicacies constitute three different queues at the first stage. The second stage consists of only one queue which is for purchase of drinks and the third stage which is the last stage is for payment. Every customer in the restaurant passes through the three stages. Utilization factors for the five queues were determined and found to range from 70% to 97%. The average time spent by customers in the system was found to be 543.04 minutes. A simulation study using what-if scenario analysis was performed to determine the optimum service configuration for the system. The optimum configuration reduced average time for customers in the system from 543.04 minutes to 13.47 minutes without hiring new servers.展开更多

In this model, expressions are derived to calculate two performance metrics, namely, the queue node and system utilization factors. In order to demonstrate the flexibility and effectiveness of the mQN model in analyzing the performance of an mQN network router, two scenarios are performed. These scenarios investigated the variation of queue nodes and system utilization factors against queue nodes dropping probability for various system sizes and packets arrival routing probabilities. The performed scenarios demonstrated that the mQN analytical model is more flexible and effective when compared with experimental tests and computer simulations in assessing the performance of an mQN network router.展开更多

Two classes of units, priority and non-priority, arrive at the system in two independent Poisson streams. Under a non-preemptive priority rule, the server provides a general service to the priority units and a deterministic service to the non-priority units. We further assume that the server may take a vacation of random length just after serving the last priority unit present in the system. We obtain steady state queue size distribution at a random epoch. Corresponding results for some special cases, including the known results of the M/G/1 and the M/D/1 queues, have been derived.展开更多

Processes taking place at this time are called service of requirements, and the systems themselves—Queueing Systems. This article is dedicated to computer software modelling of processes taking place in the systems in question, Markov processes in particular. In this article, by means of Matlab environment, software realization of one of the typical models of queueing service theory-multichannel QS with unreliable recoverable servers and limited number of requirements in the system, is fulfilled. The results of this research are important because it gives the possibility to use received results to determine optimality degree of some real queueing systems that possess Markov property.展开更多

This solves the main drawback of traditional weighted fair queneing algorithms- the packet-based calculation of the weight parameters. In addition, this paper proposes a novel service ratio calculation method and a queue mangement technology. The former adjusts the service ratio parameters adaptively based on the dynamics of the packet lengths and thee solves the unfairness problem induced by the variable packet length. The latter improves the utilization of the server＇s queue buffer and reduces the delay jitter through restricting the buffer length for each flow.展开更多

First of all, we defined the reliability of tele-network. According to the definition, we divide the whole reliability into two parts:the reliability of the mini-way and that of the whole system. Then we do algebra unintersection of the mini-way, deriving a function of reliability of tele-network. Also, we got a function of the cost of tele-network after analyzing the cost of arcs and points. Finally, we give a mathematical model to design a tele-network. For the algorithm, we define the distance of a network and adjacent area within certain boundaries . We present a new algorithm--Queue Competition Algorithm (QCA) based on the adjacent area . The QCA correlates sequence of fitnesses in their father-generations with hunting zone of mutation and the number of individuals generated by mutation, making the stronger fitness in a small zone converge at a local extreme value, but the weaker one takes the advantage of lots of individuals and a big zone to hunt a new local extreme value. In this way, we get the overall extreme value. Numerical simulation shows that we can get the efficient hunting and exact solution by using QCA. The QCA efficient hunting and exact solution.展开更多

By a simple method （techniques of probability decomposition, renewal process theory） that is different from the techniques used by Hunter（1983）, the transient property of the queue with initial state i（i ≥ 0） is discussed. The recursion expression for u -transform of transient queue-length distribution at any time point n^＋ is obtained, and the recursion expression of the limiting queue length distribution is also obtained.展开更多

The methodology applies the shockwave theory to model queue evolution over time and space. Using probe vehicle locations and times as well as point detector measured traffic states,analytical formulations for calculating the maximum and minimum( residual) queue length are developed. The proposed methodology is verified using ground truth data collected from numerical experiments conducted in Shanghai,China. It is found that the methodology has a mean absolute percentage error of 17. 09%,which is reasonably effective in estimating the queue length at traffic signalized intersections. Limitations of the proposed models and algorithms are also discussed in the paper.展开更多
