چکیده

A priority queue transforms an input permutation cr of some set of size n into an output permutation z. It is shown that the number of such pairs (a, z) is (n + 1)"1 Some related enumerative and algorithmic questions are also considered.

Priority Queue Sorting and Labeled Trees

The priority queue discussed in this talk is an abstract data type supporting theoperations INSERT and DELETEMIN, which transforms an input permutation σ oflength n to an output permutation τ . Atkinson and Thiyagarajah [2] proved that suchpairs (σ, τ) are counted by (n + 1)n−1. This is also well known as Cayley’s formulain graph theory, which counts the number of labeled trees ...

A Bijective Approach to the Permutational Power of a Priority Queue

A priority queue transforms an input permutation p1 of a totally ordered set of size n into an output permutation p2. Atkinson and Thiyagarajah showed that the number of such pairs (p1; p2) is (n+1)n 1, which is well known to be the number of labeled trees on n + 1 vertices. We give a new proof of this result by finding a bijection from such pairs of permutations to labeled trees.

A Finite Capacity Priority Queue with Discouragement

In this paper we report on a study of a two level preemptive priority queue with balking and reneging for lower priority level. The inter-arrival and the service times for both levels follow exponential distribution. We use a finite difference equation approach for solving the balance equations of the governing queuing model whose states are described by functions of one independent variable. H...

On Finite Queue with Two Types of Failures and Preemptive Priority (RESEARCH NOTE)

We study the single server queueing system with two types of Abstract failure to servicechannels including the preemptive priority to the repair of major failure. The units arrive at thesystem in a poisson fashion and are served exponenitally. The steady - state probabilities ofvarious states by using generating function have been obtained.

A new multi-mode and multi-product hub covering problem‎: ‎A priority M/M/c queue ‎approach

One main group of a transportation network is a discrete hub covering problem that seeks to minimize the total transportation cost. This paper presents a multi-product and multi-mode hub covering model, in which the transportation time depends on travelling mode between each pair of hubs. Indeed, the nature of products is considered different and hub capacity constraint is also applied. Due to ...
