A minimal representation of Markov arrival processes and a moments matching method

M Telek, G Horváth - Performance evaluation, 2007‏ - Elsevier
The paper investigates the problem of minimal representation of Markov arrival processes of
order n (MAP (n)). The minimal representation of MAPs is crucial for develo** effective …

An analytical method for reliability evaluation of power distribution system with time-varying failure rates

D Zhang, G Li, Z Bie, K Fan - Reliability Engineering & System Safety, 2024‏ - Elsevier

planning and operation of the distribution system. Traditional analytical reliability evaluation …

Time-dependent analysis of attacks

F Arnold, H Hermanns, R Pulungan… - … 2014, Held as Part of the …, 2014‏ - Springer
The success of a security attack crucially depends on time: the more time available to the
attacker, the higher the probability of a successful attack; when given enough time, any …

An integrated production and inventory model to dampen upstream demand variability in the supply chain

RN Boute, SM Disney, MR Lambrecht… - European Journal of …, 2007‏ - Elsevier
We consider a two-echelon supply chain: a single retailer holds a finished goods inventory
to meet an iid customer demand, and a single manufacturer produces the retailer's …

Closed form solutions for map** general distributions to quasi-minimal PH distributions

T Osogami, M Harchol-Balter - Performance Evaluation, 2006‏ - Elsevier
Approximating general distributions by phase-type (PH) distributions is a popular technique
in stochastic analysis, since the Markovian property of PH distributions often allows …

M/G/1 queue with event-dependent arrival rates

B Legros - Queueing Systems, 2018‏ - Springer
Motivated by experiments on customers' behavior in service systems, we consider a
queueing model with event-dependent arrival rates. Customers' arrival rates depend on the …
