This paper represents linkage network of queues consisting of biserial and parallel servers linked to a common server in series with a flowshop scheduling system consisting of two machines. The significant transportation time of the jobs from one machine to another is also considered. Further, the completion time of jobs/customers (waiting time + service time) in the queue network is the set...

This paper deals with the study of multi-server queueing model in a fuzzy environment imposition reneging customers. Entry customers system is assumed to be Poisson process and exponential service time distribution under first-come-first-served basis. Specific this investigation derive various performance measures such as queue length, waiting queue, response optimal number servers explicit for...

conclusions: the patients' waiting times and the number of patients waiting to receive services in both shifts could be reduced by using multitasking persons and reallocating them to the time-consuming stage of filling prescriptions, using queuing theory and simulation techniques. background: hospital pharmacy is responsible for controlling and monitoring the medication use process and ensures ...

The quality of manufactured products is characterized by many controllable quality factors. These factors should be optimized to reach high quality products. In this paper we try to find the controllable factors levels with minimum deviation from the target and with a least variation. To solve the problem a simple aggregation function is used to aggregate the multiple responses functions then a...

In this paper, we study the tail behavior of the stationary queue length of an M/G/1 retrial queue. We show that the subexponential tail of the stationary queue length of an M/G/1 retrial queue is determined by that of the corresponding M/G/1 queue, and hence the stationary queue length in an M/G/1 retrial queue is subexponential if the stationary queue length in the corresponding M/G/1 queue i...

There are some problems with estimating the time required for the manufacturing process of products, especially when there is a variable serving time, like control stage. These problems will cause overestimation of process time. Layout constraints, reworking constraints and inflexible product schedule in multi product lines need a precise planning to reduce volume in particular situation of lin...

In this paper, we study a Multi-Armed Restless Bandit Problem (MARBP) subject to time fluctuations. This model has numerous applications in practice, like cloud computing systems or wireless communications networks. Each bandit is formed by two processes: controllable process and an environment. The transition rates of the are determined state environment, which exogenous Markov process. decisi...

This paper deals with finite capacity single server queuing system with vacations. Vacation starts at rate nu if the system is empty. Also the server takes another vacation if upon his arrival to the system, finds the system empty. Customers arrive in the system in Poisson fashion at rate lamda0 during vacation, faster rate lamdaf during active service and slower rate lamdas during the breakdow...
