The MAP/PH/N retrial queue in a random environment

We consider the MAP/PH/N retrial queue with a finite number of sources operating in a finite state Markovian random environment. Two different types of multi-dimensional Markov chains are investigated describing the behavior of the system based on state space arrangements. The special features of the two formulations are discussed. The algorithms for calculating the stationary state probabilities are elaborated, based on which the main performance measures are obtained, and numerical examples are presented as well.     

A probabilistic quality of service constraint for a location model of switches in ATM communications networks

We formulate a model for the optimal location of switches in ATM communications networks. The networks are designed in such a way that, at their arrival to the switches, ATM cells find free space in a buffer of length b, with a probability α. The model avoids the impairment to the communication caused by both cell loss (because of shorter buffers) and cell-delay variations (because of longer buffers). It is also shown how to transform a non-linear, probabilistic, constraint into a linear form. Computational experience is provided for the model. This revised version was published online in June 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

差异化需求下考虑患者预约行为的医疗服务供需匹配方法

如何根据患者的差异化需求,撮合医生与患者双方形成合理有效的医疗服务供需匹配,是医疗服务运作管理中重要的研究问题。本文针对医疗服务中医生与患者的实际需求,提出了一种考虑患者预约行为的匹配决策方法。在该方法中,首先依据患者的预约行为及特征分类;然后,通过计算不同情形下医患双方的差异度,获得了医患双方的满意度矩阵;在此基础上,提出了匹配预约患者与医生的E-HR算法,并进一步构建了匹配剩余患者和医生的多目标优化模型,通过模型求解得到最优匹配结果;最后,通过算例说明了本文提出方法的可行性和实用性。

基于概率密度演化方法的随机结构可靠度分析

随机结构反应的概率密度演化方法能够给出随机荷载作用下随机结构反应的概率密度函数。在此基础上,根据给定的正常使用位移限值要求,直接进行积分给出了随机结构的正常使用可靠度及其失效概率。在实例分析中,与一类情况下的精确解答及基于反应正态分布假定的二阶矩方法分析结果进行了比较。研究表明：基于密度演化方法的随机结构可靠度分析具有很高的精度,而二阶矩方法的可靠度分析结果则往往具有一定的偏差,在失效概率较低时可能给出虚假的失效概率。

Experimental Investigation on Transmission Control Protocol Throughput Behavior in Optical Fiber Access Networks

ABSTRACT

This article describes an experimental investigation on the behavior of transmission control protocol in throughput measurements to be used in the verification of the service-level agreement between the Internet service provider and user in terms of line capacity for ultra-broadband access networks typical of fiber-to-the-x architectures. It is experimentally shown different conditions in high bandwidth-delay product links where the estimation of the line capacity based on a single transmission control protocol session results are unreliable. Simple equations reported in this work, and experimentally verified, point out the conditions in terms of packet loss, time delay, and line capacity, that allow consideration of the reliability of the measurement carried out with a single transmission control protocol session test by adopting a suitable measurement time duration.

垄断服务系统公共损耗费用分摊理论基础分析

就具有最简单结构的抽象垄断服务系统的基本特性及其公共损耗的费用分摊问题建立了较为完整的公平性与合理性公理体系.同时,利用边际损耗原则导出了一类满足公理组的费用分摊方法,并将所得结论应用于电力系统有功网损费用分摊问题,从理论上统一了现有的几类主要的分摊方法.分析结论表明:损耗结构分析和费用分摊原则的确定在本质上从属于不同层次的问题.特别地,对不分明损耗而言:它们还是不可分割的统一体.对这一类问题进行描述必须考虑综合运用数学、社会学、经济学和方法论原则.
