Abstract

There is a specific problem structure encountered in certain socioeconomic problems. The problem structure is characterized as a queuing network. By using certain concepts from activity network problems an efficient software system can be defined for the solution of queuing network problems. This paper discusses the conceptualization of the queuing network structure as a set of basic building blocks. The building blocks are the basis of a simulation software package designed to model queuing network problems.

A max-algebra approach to modeling and simulation of tandem queueing systems

Max-algebra models of tandem single-server queueing systems with both finite and infinite buffers are developed. The dynamics of each system is described by a linear vector state equation similar to those in the conventional linear systems theory, and ...

Abstract
In this paper, we study the mathematical and simulation models of the polling system with cyclic polling order and batch service. The service discipline is considered to be either exhaustive or gated. We study mathematical analysis of system with ...
Modeling and Simulation of Mixed Queueing and Loss Systems

In this paper, we investigate a multi-rate network in which wide-band calls are allowed to wait if insufficient resources are available at the time of the call arrival. On the link level, an analytical model is presented and simulations have been carried out ...
