Ribosome queuing is a fundamental phenomenon suggested to be related to topics such as genome evolution, synthetic biology, gene expression regulation, intracellular biophysics, and more. However, this phenomenon hasn't been quantified yet at a genomic level. Nevertheless, methodologies for studying translation (e.g. ribosome footprints) are usually calibrated to capture only single ribosome pr...

As input traffic at various nodes in packet switched telecommunication networks typically exhibits considerable correlation, there is a continuing interest in queuing systems with correlated arrivals. The class of M/G/∞ arrival models can account for various types of arrival correlation, has a twolevel structure which is appealing in the context of network protocol stacks, and is characterised ...

Many proposals of input queuing cell switch architectures have recently appeared in the literature. Some have found application in commercial very high speed IP routers. In this paper we discuss the pros and cons of input and output queuing switch architectures, we provide a taxonomy of scheduling algorithms for input queuing switches, and we present comparative performance results for some of ...

Transcription typing is one of the basic visual-motor control tasks with practical importance. Brain imaging studies (fMRI and PET) have discovered 2 phenomena related to transcription typing, involving different activation patterns of brain areas. In behavioral studies, Salthouse (1986) summarized 29 quantitative behavioral phenomena of transcription typing, 19 of which were modeled by TYPIST ...

Queuing leading to significant waiting times is common for patients in a healthcare delivery system. Although, there are many alternatives to choose amongst many options to reduce queuing including prioritization, increase in capacity, rationing, public private partnerships, patient and physician education etc. the present study was conducted in Institute of Nuclear Medicine and Allied Sciences...

Due to the rapid growth of wireless data services, the issues of providing different quality of services and fair channel access have become more and more crucial. In wireline networks, there are many mature fair queuing algorithms that can provide fairness and bounded delay properties. However, they cannot be directly applied to wireless networks because of the bursty and location-dependent er...

PRP (Psychological Refractory Period) is a basic but important form of human information processing in dual-task situations. This article describes a queuing network model of PRP that successfully modeled PRP without the need of setting up complex lock/unlock performance strategies employed in the EPIC model of PRP or drawing complex scheduling charts employed in the ACT-R/PM model of PRP. Furt...

ASDE-X is a runway safety system that fuses data from multiple sources to provide enhanced air traffic control situational awareness. These data may also be used to manage arrival and departure delay at congested airports. This paper demonstrates the potential for delay management by using departure data recorded by the ASDE-X system at JFK Airport before runway reconstruction in 2010 began. Th...
