The effect of catastrophes on the strategic customer behavior in queueing systems

We consider the single server Markovian queue subject to Poisson generated catastrophes. Whenever a catastrophe occurs, all customers are forced to abandon the system, the server is rendered inoperative and an exponential repair time is set on. During the repair time new arrivals are allowed to join the system. We assume that the arriving customers decide whether to join the system or balk, based on a natural linear reward‐cost structure with two types of rewards: A (usual) service reward for those customers that receive service and a (compensation) failure reward for those customers that are forced to abandon the system due to a catastrophe. We study the strategic behavior of the customers regarding balking and derive the corresponding (Nash) equilibrium strategies for the observable and unobservable cases. We show that both types of strategic behavior may be optimal: to avoid the crowd or to follow it. The crucial factor that determines the type of customer behavior is the relative value of the service reward to the failure compensation. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

重离子碰撞中的量子饱和机制

分别利用胶子半经典饱和与量子饱和机制,研究了相对论重离子碰撞中净余质子产生截面的大横动量现象。通过贝塞尔函数多项式近似与辛普森求积法的结合应用,解决了对贝塞尔函数的二重高振荡积分问题。计算发现:量子饱和机制的计算结果能很好地解释布鲁克海文国家实验室的最新实验现象,从而证实了高能重离子碰撞中胶子量子饱和机制的存在。     

基于EVALPSN的循环式多轿厢电梯避撞设计与实现

多轿厢电梯系统作为垂直运输的新方式,避免轿厢之间的碰撞成为了其安全运行急需解决的重要问题。根据循环式多轿厢电梯控制系统的轿厢安全运行准则,分析了循环式多轿厢电梯系统的避撞控制问题,研究了基于带有强否定的扩展矢量注解的逻辑规划方法,设计一种电梯轿厢安全避障方法。通过建立了禁止轿厢危险运行的EVALPSN算式,避免了派梯中所选轿厢在井道中发生碰撞,保证电梯控制系统的安全运行,实验结果表明:所设计的方法针对循环式多轿厢断电梯避撞问题有较好的效果,可有效地保证多轿厢运行的安全性。
