this paper presents a discrete-time single-server finite buffer n threshold policy queue with renewal input and discretemarkovian service process. the server terminates service whenever the system becomes empty, and recommencesservice as soon as the number of waiting customers in the queue is n. we obtain the system-length distributionsat pre-arrival and arbitrary epochs using the supplementary...

Technology offers educators active learning and new teaching strategies. Five lower cost and scalable technology applications are presented as alternative or complement to high-fidelity simulation. Professional nurse educators should adopt technology when teaching and interact with vendors to generate real-world applications that advance development. J Contin Educ Nurs. 2018;49(3):105-108.

Web applications rely on servers to store and process confidential information. However, anyone who gains access to the server (e.g., an attacker, a curious administrator, or a government) can obtain all of the data stored there. This paper presents Mylar, a platform that provides endto-end encryption to web applications. Mylar protects the confidentiality of sensitive data fields against attac...

A single server queue with Bernoulli vacation has been considered. In addition the admission to queue is based on a Bernoulli process and the server gives two type of services. For this model the probability generating function for the number of customers in the queue at different server's state are obtained using supplementary variable technique. Some performance measures are calculated. Some ...

The security guarantees provided by SSL/TLS depend on the correct authentication of servers through certificates signed by a trusted authority. However, as recent incidents have demonstrated, trust in these authorities is not well placed. Increasingly, certificate authorities (by coercion or compromise) have been creating forged certificates for a range of adversaries, allowing seemingly secure...

 In this paper a single server queuing production system is considered which is subject to gradual deterioration. The system is discussed under two different deteriorating conditions. A planning horizon is considered and server which is a D/M/1 queuing system is gradually deteriorates through time periods. A maintenance policy is taken into account whereby the server is restored to its initial ...
