Diffusion limits for the queue length of jobs in multi-server open queueing networks
Journal Title: Operations Research and Decisions - Year 2017, Vol 27, Issue 4
Abstract
A mathematical model of a multiserver open queueing network in heavy traffic is developed. This model is that of a multiserver computer system network in heavy traffic. A limit theorem for the length of the queue has been presented.

On the core of a cost allocation problem under asymmetric information
We study a cost allocation problem under asymmetric information, and show that the ex ante incentive compatible core is non-empty. We also obtain a non-emptiness result for the incentive compatible coarse core, which is...
Orders of criticality in voting games
The authors focus on the problem of investigating the blackmail power of players in simple games, which is the possibility of players of threatening coalitions to cause them loss using arguments that are (apparently) unj...
Determining models of influence
We consider a model of opinion formation based on aggregation functions. Each player modifies his opinion by arbitrarily aggregating the current opinion of all players. A player is influential on another player if the op...
Efficiency measurement in dynamic two-stage network structures with flexible intermediate materials
Data envelopment analysis (DEA) is a nonparametric method for evaluating the relative efficiency of decision making units (DMUs) described by multiple inputs and multiple outputs. Since DEA was introduced in the 1970s, i...
Probabilistic characteristics supporting the management of a production-supply system
The construction of a model and quantitative measures have been presented aimed at improving the efficiency of a production-supply system described by a three-dimensional stochastic process. For this purpose, the laws go...
