The Relationship between a MMPP and a MMRP
نویسنده
چکیده
We show that the moment generating function of a Markov modulated rate process (MMRP) is related to the moment generating function of a Markov modulated Poisson process (MMPP) through a logarithmic transformation of the argument. Some implications, extensions and limitations of this relationship are presented.

متن کاملClinical significance of mismatch repair gene expression in sporadic colorectal cancer
Mismatch repair (MMR) genes play an important role in the occurrence and development of sporadic colorectal cancer; however, the effect of MMR genes on clinicopathological features and prognosis remains unclear. The aim of the present study was to observe the clinical significance of MMR gene expression in sporadic colorectal cancer. Clinicopathological data and postoperative samples from 404 p...

متن کاملA Further Investigation of Combined Mismatch Repair and BRAFV600E Mutation Specific Immunohistochemistry as a Predictor of Overall Survival in Colorectal Carcinoma
Mutation specific immunohistochemistry (IHC) is a promising new technique to detect the presence of the BRAFV600E mutation in colorectal carcinoma (CRC). When performed in conjunction with mismatch repair (MMR) IHC, BRAFV600E IHC can help to further triage genetic testing for Lynch Syndrome. In a cohort of 1426 patients undergoing surgery from 2004 to 2009 we recently demonstrated that the comb...

The paper presents a study on the use of MarkovModulated Poisson Precesses (MMPP ’s) in modeling aggregate ATM tmfic in order to evaluate the queueing performance. Performance of various techniques for matching a 2-state MMPP to a Superposition of on-ofl sources is compared. The applicability of the 2state MMPP and its corresponding parameter matching techniques to model an arbitmry aggregate A...
