An M x /G/1 queueing system with second optional service (SOS)is studied under N policy and Bernoulli Vacation. The system remains idle until the queue size reaches or exceeds N ( ≥ 1). When the queue size reaches at leastN, the server may begin his setup operation with probability s or may start the service with probability (1-s). The server provides two phases of heterogeneous services, of wh...

Reward-based scheduling refers to the problem in which there is a reward associated with the execution of a task. In our framework, each real-time task comprises a mandatory and an optional part. The mandatory part must complete before the task's deadline, while a nondecreasing reward function is associated with the execution of the optional part, which can be interrupted at any time. Imprecise...

Traditional public transport is evolving towards more flexible services and operation modes in order to better serve the needs of the population, capture additional demand, and increase its profitability. The transportation system that we study integrates traditional bus transportation and on-demand services. Demand-responsive lines provide a classical, scheduled, transportation service among a...

In this paper we analyze a single server queue with batch arrival Poisson input, two heterogeneous service with different general (arbitrary) service time distributions and two phase (compulsory and optional) server vacations with general (arbitrary) vacation period. The first phase of service is essential for all customers, as soon as the first service of a customer is completed, then with pro...

This paper proposes a classification method of commonality and variability for identified services from feature models, since features can express the properties of services. The service is identified by feature organizing, considering the selective and relational attributes of features. Identified services are classified the commonality and variability of services; this involves analyzing the ...

In this paper, a bulk arrival retrial queueing model with two phases of service symbolically denoted by M/(G1,G2)/1 has been discussed under Bernoulli vacation schedule to explore main ly its steady state behaviour using maximum entropy principle (MEP). We consider that customers arrive in batches according to Poisson distribution and a single server of the system provides his services in two p...
