This paper gives an overview of those aspects of simulation methodology that are (to some extent) peculiar to the simulation of queueing systems. A generalized semi-Markov process framework for describing queueing systems is used through much of the paper. The main topics covered are: output analysis for simulation of transient and steady-state quantities, variance reduction methods that exploit queueing structure, and gradient estimation methods for performance parameters associated with queueing networks.The research of this author was supported by the U.S. Army Research Office under Contract DAAG29-84-K-0030.The research of this author was supported by the U.S. Army Research Office under Contract DAAG29-84-K-0030 and National Science Foundation Grant DCR-85-09668. 相似文献

The literature about maximum of entropy for Markov processes deals mainly with discrete-time Markov chains. Very few papers dealing with continuous-time jump Markov processes exist and none dealing with semi-Markov processes. It is the aim of this paper to contribute to fill this lack. We recall the basics concerning entropy for Markov and semi-Markov processes and we study several problems to give an overview of the possible directions of use of maximum entropy in connection with these processes. Numeric illustrations are presented, in particular in application to reliability. 相似文献

We consider a separable Bayesian semi-Markov control model to describe economic decisions under uncertainty. Our main interest is to examine the influence of the possibility of learning on the economic decisions and on the total expected return in a multi-period framework. We make use of the concept of Blackwell-sufficiency and apply the results to multi-period investment planing under uncertainty. 相似文献

This article analyzes the maintenance of production system with unreliable machines. This system includes a repair facility and three types of unreliable machines: the main facility of working and reserve machines, and an auxiliary facility of super-reserve machines. Operating times of working machines are exponentially distributed. Upon failure, a working machine is immediately replaced by reserve machines available. Defective machines line up for repair, whose duration is arbitrarily distributed. Refurbished machines return to the main facility. If the main facility is restored to its original quantity (i.e., all machines are intact), the repair facility leaves on routine maintenance; all w+1 reserve machines are temporarily blocked and renewals come from the super-reserve group until the latter becomes exhausted. Then, the busy period is regenerated. The techniques include two-variate Markov and semi-regenerative processes, and a duality principle, to find the probability distribution of the number of intact machines. Explicit formulas obtained demonstrate a relatively effortless use of functionals of the main stochastic characteristics (such as expenses due to repair, maintenance, waiting, and rewards for higher reliability) and optimization of their objective function. Applications of such models include computer networking, human resources, and manufacturing processes. 相似文献

The asymptotic behavior of a queueing process in overloaded state-dependent queueing models (systems and networks) of a switching structure is investigated. A new approach to study fluid and diffusion approximation type theorems (without reflection) in transient and quasi-stationary regimes is suggested. The approach is based on functional limit theorems of averaging principle and diffusion approximation types for so-called Switching processes. Some classes of state-dependent Markov and non-Markov overloaded queueing systems and networks with different types of calls, batch arrival and service, unreliable servers, networks (M

A new algorithm for classifying the states of a homogeneous Markov chain having finitely many states is presented, which enables the investigation of the asymptotic behavior of semi-Markov processes in which the Markov chain is embedded. An application of the algorithm to a social security problem is also presented. 相似文献

Quality of service guarantees are an important and much discussed aspect of ATM network design. However, there is no standard definition of quality of service. Moreover, some often-used criteria seem quite crude. We consider call admission to a bufferless ATM multiplexer with on/off sources. A new criterion for a guarantee on average cell loss is proposed. This criterion represents the quality of service from the point of view of the user, and is thus more reliable. We calculate the optimal policy that minimizes blocking subject to the guarantee, when there is only one type of user.The measure of cell-loss we propose is applicable to a wide range of models. It gives rise to a mathematical programming formulation, which we derive explicitly for our case. 相似文献

This paper attempts to study the optimal stopping time for semi- Markov processes (SMPs) under the discount optimization criteria with unbounded cost rates. In our work, we introduce an explicit construction of the equivalent semi-Markov decision processes (SMDPs). The equivalence is embodied in the expected discounted cost functions of SMPs and SMDPs, that is, every stopping time of SMPs can induce a policy of SMDPs such that the value functions are equal, and vice versa. The existence of the optimal stopping time of SMPs is proved by this equivalence relation. Next, we give the optimality equation of the value function and develop an effective iterative algorithm for computing it. Moreover, we show that the optimal and ε-optimal stopping time can be characterized by the hitting time of the special sets. Finally, to illustrate the validity of our results, an example of a maintenance system is presented in the end. 相似文献

As an extension of the discrete-time case, this note investigates the variance of the total cumulative reward for the embedded
Markov chain of semi-Markov processes. Under the assumption that the chain is aperiodic and contains a single class of recurrent
states recursive formulae for the variance are obtained which show that the variance growth rate is asymptotically linear
in time. Expressions are provided to compute this growth rate. 相似文献
