Quantifying the performance effects of idle time utilization in multiserver systems

In many practical multiserver queueing systems, servers not only serve randomly arriving customers but also work on the secondary jobs with infinite backlog during their idle time. In this paper, we propose a c‐server model with a two‐threshold policy, denoted by (e d), to evaluate the performance of this class of systems. With such a policy, when the number of idle servers has reached d (<c), then e (<d) idle agents will process secondary jobs. These e servers keep working on the secondary jobs until they find waiting customers exist in the system at a secondary job completion instant. Using the matrix analytic method, we obtain the stationary performance measures for evaluating different (e, d) policies. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Naval Research Logistics, 2007.     

多级可修备件库存的生灭过程建模与优化

针对VARI-METRIC模型在低可用度下结果不准确的问题,建立基于生灭过程的任意等级、任意层级可修件库存优化模型。通过对各级站点、各类备件需求率与到达率的预测,对每个部件建立其生灭过程模型,并提出基于生灭过程的装备可用度计算方法。以整个保障系统的装备可用度为约束指标,以备件总购置费最低为目标,利用边际算法得到最优备件配置方案,并建立仿真模型对所得优化方案进行评估与调整。结合算例,以仿真结果作为检验标准,选取权威的VMETRIC软件与该解析模型在优化性能、计算精度及适用性上进行对比和说明。结果表明,无论是解析模型还是VMETRIC软件,均存在一定的适用范围,而采用解析与仿真相结合的方法无疑具有更强的适应性。     

成层地基中压入法沉桩引起的桩周土体变形分析

通过在桩-土界面设置接触面,选用合理的单元类型,建立了较为符合压入桩压桩实际的三维有限元模型。利用得到的有限元模型,采用单元生死技术对压入桩压桩过程进行了数值模拟,讨论了成层地基压桩过程中桩周土体的竖向应力及应变随压桩深度的动态变化。选用桩型为钢管桩,分析结果表明:随着压桩深度的增加,桩内桩周土体的竖向应力(或应变)一直表现为压应力(或压应变),且逐渐增大;桩外桩周土体的竖向应力(或应变)逐渐由压应力(或压应变)变为拉应力(或拉应变)。随着压桩深度的增加,桩内桩周土体前3层竖向应力(或应变)的变化幅度基本一致,第4层的变化幅度增大;桩外桩周土体每2层土之间的差异都较大。

多层次区域炮兵地面侦察配系效能的评估

为了评估由于侦察区域大、目标机动性强等特点而建立的炮兵地面侦察配系的效能,运用排队论方法,建立了侦察配系效能评估模型.该模型综合考虑了各种因素对侦察配系效能的影响,把侦察区域按照距离的远近划分为不同的范围来进行侦察配系的效能评估.当目标流的速率发生变化时,依然可以灵活运用该模型对侦察配系的效能做出准确的评估.以雷达侦察配系为例,论证了评估模型在侦察效能评估中的可行性,为侦察配系效能评估提供了可靠的分析方法.     

Sojourn times in a two‐stage queueing network with blocking

The model considered in this paper involves a tandem queue consisting of a sequence of two waiting lines. The main feature of our model is blocking, i.e., as soon as the second waiting line reaches a certain upper limit, the first line is blocked. The input of units to the tandem queue is the MAP (Markovian arrival process), and service requirements are of phase type. Our objective is to study the sojourn time distribution under the first‐come‐first‐serve discipline by analyzing the sojourn time through times until absorption in appropriately defined quasi‐birth‐and‐death processes and continuous‐time Markov chains. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Properties of the geometric and related processes

Some properties of the geometric process are studied along with those of a related process which we propose to call the α‐series process. It is shown that the expected number of counts at an arbitrary time does not exist for the decreasing geometric process. The decreasing version of the α‐series process does have a finite expected number of counts, under certain conditions. This process also has the same advantages of tractability as the geometric process; it exhibits some properties which may make it a useful complement to the increasing geometric process. In addition, it may be fit to observed data as easily as the geometric process. Applications in reliability and stochastic scheduling are considered in order to demonstrate the versatility of the alternative model. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Using a birth‐and‐death process to estimate the steady‐state distribution of a periodic queue

If the number of customers in a queueing system as a function of time has a proper limiting steady‐state distribution, then that steady‐state distribution can be estimated from system data by fitting a general stationary birth‐and‐death (BD) process model to the data and solving for its steady‐state distribution using the familiar local‐balance steady‐state equation for BD processes, even if the actual process is not a BD process. We show that this indirect way to estimate the steady‐state distribution can be effective for periodic queues, because the fitted birth and death rates often have special structure allowing them to be estimated efficiently by fitting parametric functions with only a few parameters, for example, 2. We focus on the multiserver M_t/GI/s queue with a nonhomogeneous Poisson arrival process having a periodic time‐varying rate function. We establish properties of its steady‐state distribution and fitted BD rates. We also show that the fitted BD rates can be a useful diagnostic tool to see if an M_t/GI/s model is appropriate for a complex queueing system. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
