Mitigating Performance Variability in Mixed-Integer Programming Solvers via LP State Steering
Mourchid Adegbindin, Brenda Dietrich, Jamol Pender
Modern mixed-integer programming (MIP) solvers repeatedly solve linear programming (LP) relaxations, but the LP state transferred from the simplex algorithm to the branch-and-bound…
When Solvers Get Moody: Quantifying and Predicting Performance Variability in Mixed Integer Programming
Mourchid Adegbindin, Brenda Dietrich, Jamol Pender +1
Mixed-integer programming (MIP) solvers are widely used, yet their performance can vary substantially even under seemingly neutral perturbations. Such variability complicates bench…
When Lines Become Contagious: Analyzing the Spread of Infection in the M/M/1 Queue
Laurel Newman, Jamol Pender
In this paper, we construct and analyze a stochastic model for infectious disease spread in service systems. Our model considers a queue where a proportion, , of the arr…
Erlang Loss Model with Energy Constrained Servers
Elijah Kulikov, Eliezer Fuentes-Quezada, Jamol Pender
In this paper, we study an Erlang-type loss system with energy-constrained servers. Each server is equipped with a finite battery and becomes temporarily unavailable for service wh…
The Amplitude Dynamics of Impulsive Queues
Ruici Gao, Jamol Pender
In this paper, we analyze a multiserver Markovian queue with customer abandonment i.e. the Erlang-A queue uder a novel framework, i.e. the random impulsive differential equations (…
Telehealth Control Policies: Bridging the Gap Between Patients and Doctors
Shuwen Lu, Mark E. Lewis, Jamol Pender
This paper studies a sequential decision-making problem in a two-stage queueing system modeled after operations in CVS MinuteClinics, where nurse practitioners (NPs) oversee patien…
