In this article we have considered a stochastic delay differential equation model for two species competitive phytoplankton system with allelopathic stimulation. We have extended the deterministic model system to a stochastic delay differential equation model system by incorporating multiplicative white noise terms in the growth equations for both species. We have studied the mean square stabil...

We survey geometric properties which imply the stochastic incompleteness of the minimal diffusion process associated to the Laplacian on manifolds and graphs. In particular, we completely characterize stochastic incompleteness for spherically symmetric graphs and show that, in contrast to the case of Riemannian manifolds, there exist examples of stochastically incomplete graphs of polynomial vo...

This investigation deals with multi server queue with balking. The customers arrive in poisson fashion and independent of time, under the assumption that system is initially empty. The number of customers in the system is stochastically increasing and distributed in steady state (stationary state) as required. The expressions for the measure of the speed of convergence from transient state to s...

This paper studies the economic-order-quantity model (EOQ) for deteriorating items in two cases (with and without shortages) to evaluate how vendor managed inventory (VMI) affects supply chain. We consider two-level supply chain (single supplier and a single retailer) with one instantaneous deteriorating item. A numerical example and sensitivity analysis are provided to illustrate the effect of...

We consider the following single-machine time-dependent scheduling problem with constraints on the machine availability. There is given a set of independent and deteriorating jobs Jj , 1 ≤ j ≤ n, to be processed on a single machine, starting from time t0 > 0. The processing time pj of job Jj is a proportional function of the starting time Sj of this job, pj = αjSj, where Sj ≥ t0 and deteriorati...

Purpose: The purpose of this paper to develop an inventory model for instantaneous deteriorating items with the consideration of the facts that the deterioration rate can be controlled by using the preservation technology (PT) and the holding cost & demand rate both are linear function of time which was treated as constant in most of the deteriorating inventory model. Design/methodology/approac...
