priority queues have a great importance in the study of computer communication networks in which different types of traffic require different quality of service standards. the discrete-time non-preemptive priority queuing model with priority jumps is proposed in this paper. on the basis of probability generating functions mean system contents and mean queuing delay characteristics are obtained....

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...

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 ...

Queuing theory is the branch of Operations research in applied mathematics and deals with phenomenon of waiting lines. Queuing theory is concerned with the mathematical modeling and analysis of systems which provides service to random demands. In this paper, we have focused the applications of queuing theory in the field of healthcare (hospital) i.e. one of the biological paradigm. The health s...
