This study presents and discusses the home delivery services in stochastic queuing-inventory modeling (SQIM). system consists of two servers: one server manages inventory sales processes, other provides at doorstep customers. Based on Bernoulli schedule, a customer served by first may opt for service. If any chooses option, he hands over purchased item leaves immediately. Otherwise, carries sys...

Present investigation deals with optimal management policy for Markovian queue with server breakdowns, vacations and setup. The customers arrive in Poisson fashion to get the service. The server may breakdown during the service and goes for repair immediately. By applying probability generating function technique queue length distribution is obtain for different states of the server. Further we...

The present investigation deals with performance analysis of single server preemptive priority retrial queue with immediate Bernoulli feedback. There are two types of customers are considered, which are priority customers and ordinary customers. The priority customers do not form any queue and have an exclusive preemptive priority to receive their services over ordinary customers. After complet...

This paper investigates the concept of a Markovian queueing model with heterogeneous, intermittently available servers feedback under hybrid vacation policy. Both asymmetric transition representation and policy are addressed in this article. The necessary sufficient conditions for system stability presented. In addition, steady-state probability distribution was derived by employing matrix geom...

Abstract: This paper deals with the steady state behavior of an M/G/1 retrial queue with two successive phases of service and general retrial times under Bernoulli vacation schedule for an unreliable server. While the server is working with any phase of service, it may breakdown at any instant and the service channel will fail for a short interval of time. The primary customers finding the serv...

This paper presents the transient solution of a variant working vacation queue with balking. Customers arrive according to a Poisson process and decide to join the queue with probability $b$ or balk with $bar{b} = 1-b$. As soon as the system becomes empty, the server takes working vacation. The service times during regular busy period and working vacation period, and vacation times are assumed ...

This paper deals with finite-population, single and multi-server queueing systems with two classes of vacation mechanisms : station vacation and server vacation. In the first one, all the servers take vacation simultaneously whenever the system becomes empty, and they also return to the system at the same time, i.e., station vacation is group vacation for all servers. For the second class of va...

In this paper, we investigate the bulk service queue with Bernoulli vacation schedule and restricted admissibility introduced and studied by Madan and Abu-Dayyeh, [Revista Investigacion Operacional, Vol.24, No.2, pp.113-123, 2003]. Madan and Abu-Dayyeh assume exponentially distributed service times while we allow these times to be generally distributed. We obtain various performance measures th...

The scheduling needs of a large, diverse academic anesthesiology department are complex, and have a significant impact on surgical suite efficiency. Our departmnent needed a system that would reduce scheduling effort, decrease errors (particularly uncovered or understaffed assignments), and inprove schedule availability, the vacation request process and the ability to report on assignment histo...
