Abstract:

In this paper, a meta-heuristic method, the Bat Algorithm, based on the echolocation behavior of bats is used to determine the optimum service rate of a queue problem. A finite buffer M/M/1 queue with N policy, multiple working vacations and Bernoulli schedule vacation interruption is considered. Under the two customers' impatient situations, balking and reneging, the queue is studied using the matrix geometric method. Simulations show that the proposed algorithm seems much superior to other algorithms.

Impatient customer queue with Bernoulli schedule vacation interruption

This paper investigates a discrete-time impatient customer queue with Bernoullischedule vacation interruption. The vacation times and the service times during regular busy period and during working vacation period are assumed to follow geometric distribution. We obtain the steady-state probabilities at arbitrary and outside observer’s observation epochs using recursive technique. Cost analysis ...

ANALYSIS OF A DISCRETE-TIME IMPATIENT CUSTOMER QUEUE WITH BERNOULLI-SCHEDULE VACATION INTERRUPTION

This paper investigates a discrete-time impatient customer queue with Bernoulli-schedule vacation interruption. The  vacation times and the service times during regular busy period and during working vacation period are assumed to follow geometric distribution. We obtain the steady-state probabilities at arbitrary and outside observer's observation epochs using recursive technique. Cost analysi...

An M/(G1,G2)/1 Feedback Retrial Queue with Two Phase Service, Variant Vacation Policy Under Delaying Repair for Impatient Customer

Abstract. In this paper, we discuss about the concept of single server feedback retrial queueing system with two types of service and each type consist of two essential phases under variant vacation policy. Customers are allowed to balk and renege at particular times. By using the supplementary variables method, steady state probability generating function for system size and orbit size are obt...

Bernoulli Vacation Policy for a Bulk Retrial Queue with Fuzzy Parameters

In this paper, we investigate the fuzzy logic based system characteristics of MX/G/1 retrial queuing system with Bernoulli vacation schedule. The service time and vacation time are assumed to be generally distributed. It is found in many practical situations that the queuing models with fuzzy parameters are much more realistic than the classical crisp parameters based queuing models. We have...

Batch arrival queue with N-policy and single vacation

We consider an MXI ell queueing system with N-policy and single vacation. As soon as the system becomes empty, the server leaves the system for a vacation of random length 11: When he returns from the vacation, if the system size is greater than or equal to a pretermined value N(threshold), he begins to serve the customers. If not, the server waits in the system until the system size reaches or...

Unreliable bulk retrial queues with delayed repairs and modified vacation policy

The present investigation deals with the bulk arrival M/G/1 retrial queue with impatient customers and modified vacation policy. The incoming customers join the virtual pool of customers called orbit if they find the server being busy, on vacation or in broken down state otherwise the service of the customer at the head of the batch is started by the server. The service is provided in k</em...
