Turning back time in Markovian process algebra
نویسنده
چکیده
Product-form solutions in Markovian process algebra (MPA) are constructed using properties of reversed processes. The compositionality of MPAs is directly exploited, allowing a large class of hierarchically constructed systems to be solved for their state probabilities at equilibrium. The paper contains new results on both reversed stationary Markov processes as well as MPA itself and includes a mechanisable proof in MPA notation of Jackson’s theorem for product-form queueing networks. Several examples are used to illustrate the approach.

Markovian Process Algebra : Composition and Equivalence
Markovian Process Algebra (MPA) is a process algebra enhanced with exponential timing which allows the mapping of speciications on continuous time Markov chains (CTMCs). This paper introduces a compositional approach to compute the generator matrix of the CTMC underlying a MPA speciication which consists of the parallel composition of nite state agents. Furthermore two diierent equivalence rela...
متن کاملReduction semantics in Markovian process algebra
Stochastic (Markovian) process algebra extend classical process algebra with probabilistic exponentially distributed time durations denoted by rates (the parameter of the exponential distribution). Defining a semantics for such an algebra, so to derive Continuous Time Markov Chains from system specifications, requires dealing with transitions labeled by rates. With respect to standard process a...
متن کاملANALYSIS OF FINITE BUFFER RENEWAL INPUT QUEUE WITH BALKING AND MARKOVIAN SERVICE PROCESS
This paper presents the analysis of a renewal input finite buffer queue wherein the customers can decide either to join the queue with a probability or balk. The service process is Markovian service process ($MSP$) governed by an underlying $m$-state Markov chain. Employing the supplementary variable and imbedded Markov chain techniques, the steady-state system length distributions at pre...
متن کاملProcess algebra for performance evaluation
This paper surveys the theoretical developments in the field of stochastic process algebras, process algebras where action occurrences may be subject to a delay that is determined by a random variable. A huge class of resource-sharing systems — like large-scale computers, client-server architectures, networks — can accurately be described using such stochastic specification formalisms. The main...
متن کاملMarkovian Delay Prediction-Based Control of Networked Systems
A new Markov-based method for real time prediction of network transmission time delays is introduced. The method considers a Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP) neural model for the transmission network, where the number of neurons in the input layer is minimized so that the required calculations are reduced and the method can be implemented in the real-time. For this purpose, the Markov process order...
