A queueing model with servers disguised as customers
Janhavi Prabhu, Myron Hlynka
We propose a new queueing model, motivated by the phenomenon of pseudoprogression in cancer, in which the length of a queue appears to increase initially, before reducing to a stea…
Laplace Transforms of Improper Random Variables
Janhavi Prabhu, Myron Hlynka
The probabilistic interpretation of Laplace transforms is used to help to describe the Laplace Transform of improper random variables. In particular, busy periods in queuein…
Forward and Reverse Parking in a Parking Lot
Kexin Xie, Myron Hlynka
The choice of forward and reverse parking in a parking lot is studied as a stochastic process. An queueing system is used as an initial framework. We use Monte Carlo simu…
Collective marks and first passage times
Yiping ZHANG, Myron HLYNKA, Percy H. BRILL
Probability generating functions for first passage times of Markov chains are found using the method of collective marks. A system of equations is found which can be used to obtain…
A Queueing Model for Sleep as a Vacation
Nian Liu, Myron Hlynka
Vacation queueing systems are widely used as an extension of the classical queueing theory. We consider both working vacations and regular vacations in this paper, and compare syst…
Scheduling a Rescue
Nian Liu, Myron Hlynka
Scheduling service order, in a very specific queueing/inventory model with perishable inventory, is considered. Different strategies are discusses and results are applied to the tr…
