Restricted permutations and queue jumping
A connection between permutations that avoid 4231 and a certain queueing discipline is established. It is proved that a more restrictive queueing discipline corresponds to avoiding both 4231 and 42513, and enumeration results for such permutations are given.
متن کاملRelative Advantage, Queue Jumping, and Welfare Maximizing Weath Distribution
Suppose individuals get utilities from the total amount of wealth they hold and from their wealth relative to those immediately below them. This paper studies the distribution of wealth that maximizes an additive welfare function made up of these utilities. It interprets wealth distribution in a control theory framework to show that the welfare maximizing distribution may have unexpected proper...
متن کاملJumping Contexts of Space and Time
of the constant challenges in studying the history of the computer and its relationship to wider changes in modern society is that the unit of analysis we are tracing is so radically different in structure and capability across time (compare the 1950s mainframe to the 2000s palm-top). Amazingly, it is also adaptable in purpose and promise at any moment in time (consider the simultaneous constru...
متن کاملDelay Differentiation by Reserving Space in Queue
Introduction: A common problem in packet-based communication networks such as IP (Internet Protocol) or ATM (Asynchronous Transfer Mode) is the provisioning of adequate QoS (Quality of Service) guarantees to the traffic flows in the network. To assess the scheduling performance of a node in such networks, we can regard the node as a queue to which two flows of packets arrive: the first flow (ty...
متن کاملQueuing and queue-jumping: long-term patterns of reproductive skew in male savannah baboons, Papio cynocephalus
In many animals, variance in male mating success is strongly correlated with male dominance rank or some other measure of fighting ability. Studies in primates, however, have varied greatly in whether they detect a relationship between male dominance rank and mating success. This variability has led to debate about the nature of the relation between rank and mating success in male primates. We ...
