The present investigation deals with a machine repair problem consisting of cold and warm standby machines. The machines are subject to breakdown and are repaired by the permanent repairman operating under N-policy. There is provision of one additional removable repairman who is called upon when the work load of failed machines crosses a certain threshold level and is removed as soon as the wor...

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...

This paper analyzes renewal input state dependent queue with $N$- policy wherein the server takes exactly one vacation. Using the supplementary variable technique and recursive method, we derive the steady state system length distributions at various epochs. Various performance measures has been presented. Finally, some numerical  computations in the form of graphs are presented to show the par...

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...

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...

this paper studies an m/g/1 repairable queueing system with multiple vacations and n-policy, in which the service station is subject to occasional random breakdowns. when the service station breaks down, it is repaired by a repair facility. moreover, the repair facility may fail during the repair period of the service station. the failed repair facility resumes repair after completion of its re...
