Integer Sequences from Queueing Theory
نویسنده
چکیده
Moment sequences associated with probability distributions can be sources of integer sequences. Operators on probability distributions correspond to operators on integer sequences. Thus, there is an opportunity to apply each theory to the other. Moreover, probability models can be sources of integer sequences, both classical and new, as we show by considering the classical M/G/1 single-server queueing model. We identify moment sequences that are integer sequences. We establish connections between the M/M/1 busy period distribution and the Catalan and Schroeder numbers.

Synergistic modeling of call center operations
We synergistically apply queueing theory, integer programming, and stochastic simulation to determine an optimal staffing policy for a repair call handling center. A stationary Markovian queueing model is employed to determine minimal staffing levels for a sequence of time intervals with varying call volumes and mean handling times. These staffing requirements populate an integer programmodel f...
متن کاملApplying queuing theory for a reliable integrated location –inventory problem under facility disruption risks
This study considers a reliable location – inventory problem for a supply chain system comprising one supplier, multiple distribution centers (DCs), and multiple retailers in which we determine DCs location, inventory replenishment decisions and assignment retailers to DCs, simultaneously. Each DC is managed through a continuous review (S, Q) inventory policy. For tackling real world conditions...
متن کاملA Mixed Integer Convexity Result with an Application to an M/M/s Queueing System
Many optimization problems in queueing theory have functions with integer and real variables. Convexity results for these functions can be obtained by fixing either the integer or the real variable where bounds of the considered function play an important role. Tokgöz, Maalouf and Kumin [11] introduces the concept of mixed convexity for functions with real and integer variables and obtain conve...
