Higher Order Approximations for Tandem Queueing Networks
In this paper a higher order approximation for single server queues and tandem queueing networks is proposed and studied. Di erent from the most popular twomoment based approximations in the literature, the higher order approximation uses the higher moments of the interarrival and service distributions in evaluating the performance measures for queueing networks. It is built upon the MacLaurin ...
متن کاملHigher-Order Approximations for Testing Neglected Nonlinearity
We illustrate the need to use higher-order (specifically sixth-order) expansions in order to properly determine the asymptotic distribution of a standard artificial neural network test for neglected nonlinearity. The test statistic is a quasi-likelihood ratio (QLR) statistic designed to test whether the mean square prediction error improves by including an additional hidden unit with an activat...
متن کاملA Modified Energy Balance Method to Obtain Higher-order Approximations to the Oscillators with Cubic and Harmonic Restoring Force
This article analyzes a strongly nonlinear oscillator with cubic and harmonic restoring force and proposes an efficient analytical technique based on the modified energy balance method (MEBM). The proposed method incorporates higher-order approximations. After applying the proposed MEBM, a set of complicated higher-order nonlinear algebraic equations are obtained. Higher-order nonlinear algebra...
متن کاملThe Babylonian Method and Higher Order Approximations to Square Roots
It may have been Chebyshev who said that in the olden days the mathematical problems were posed by the gods, later by the demi-gods (Gauss, etc.) and nowadays by the technician. Modern demands by technology are growing and often (paradoxically) lamented by designers of courses and syllabi. Arguments that fundamentals have to be established rst, leave the fear that applications and philosophical...
متن کاملHigher-Order Approximations for Verification of Stochastic Hybrid Systems
This work investigates the approximate verification of probabilistic specifications expressed as any non-nested PCTL formula over Markov processes on general state spaces. The contribution puts forward new algorithms, based on higher-order function approximation, for the efficient computation of approximate solutions with explicit bounds on the error. Approximation error related to higher-order...
