This paper represents linkage network of queues consisting of biserial and parallel servers linked to a common server in series with a flowshop scheduling system consisting of two machines. The significant transportation time of the jobs from one machine to another is also considered. Further, the completion time of jobs/customers (waiting time + service time) in the queue network is the set...

Even a fully loaded computer system, where the bottleneck resource is constantly busy, often has some idle capacities available on other resources. This proposal argues for using these idle capacities speculatively, increasing system performance for correct predictions. In such a system, all resources will ideally be constantly loaded with either regular foreground tasks, or speculative idle-ti...

background and objectives: operating room (or) scheduling is key to optimal operating room productivity. the significant uncertainty associated with surgery duration renders scheduling of surgical operation a challenging task. this paper proposes a novel computational stochastic model to optimize scheduling of surgeries with uncertain durations. the model considers various surgical operation co...

in this paper the real time operation of an automatic teller machine (atm) is analyzed using atimed petri net (tpn) model. in the modeling, the probability of arrivals, the speed andattentiveness of customers (clients) are taken to account. different parameters are based onthe statistical data. the model is simulated for 24 hours. the diagrams of number ofsucceeded customers, failed references ...
