In this paper, we consider characteristics of waiting times in s1n91e-server 3-node tandem queues with finite buffers, a Poisson arrival process and deterministic service times at all nodes. There are three buffers : one at the first node is infinite and the others are finite. We obtain the fact that sojourn time or departure process is independent of the capacities of the finite buffers and does not depend on the order of service times, which are the same results in the literature. Moreover, the explicit expressions of stationary waiting times in all areas of the systems can be derived as functions of the finite buffer capacities. We also disclose a relationship of waiting times in subareas of the systems between two blocking policies communication and manufacturing. Some numerical examples are also provided.

In this study, we consider characteristics of waiting times in single-server 3-node tandem queues with a Poisson arrival process, finite buffers and deterministic or non-overlapping service times at each queue. There are three buffers: one at the first node is infinite and the others are finite. The explicit expressions of waiting times in all areas of the systems, which are driven as functions of finite buffer capacities, show that the sojourn time does not depend on the finite buffer capacities and also allow one to compute and compare characteristics of waiting times at all areas of the system under two blocking policies: communication and manufacturing blocking. As an application of these results, moreover, an optimization problem which determines the smallest buffer capacities satisfying predetermined probabilistic constraints on waiting times is considered. Some numerical examples are also provided.

In this paper we consider open queueing system with a Poisson arrival process which have a finite upper bound on the arrival rate for which the system is stable. Interpolation approximations for quantities of interest, such as moments of the sojourn time distribution, have previously been developed for such systems, utilizing exact light and heavy traffic limits. These limits cannot always be easily computed for complex systems. Thus we consider an interpolation approximation where all of the relevant information is estimated via simulation. We show that all the relevant information can in fact be simultaneously estimated in a single regenerative simulation at any arrival rate. In addition to light and heavy traffic limits, both the quantity of interest and its derivative (with respect to the arrival rate) are estimated at the arrival rate of the simulation. All of the estimates are then combined, using a least squares procedure, to provide an interpolation approximation.

This paper deals with a First-Come, First-Served queueing model to analyze the behavior of heterogeneous finite source system with a single server Each sources and the processor are assumed to operate in independently Markovian environments, respectively. Each request is characterized by its own exponentially distributed source and service time with parameter depending on the state of the corresponding environment, that is, the arrival and service rates are subject to random fluctuations. Our aim is to get the usual stationary performance measures of the system, such as, utilizations, mean number of requests staying at the server, mean queue lengths, average waiting and sojourn times. In the case of fast arrivals or fast service asymptotic methods can be applied. In the intermediate situations stochastic simulation Is used. As applications of this model some problems in the field of telecommunications are treated.

In this study, we consider characteristics of stationary waiting times in single-server 2-node tandem queues with a finite buffer, a Poisson arrival process and deterministic service times. The system has two buffers: one at the first node is infinite and the other one at the second node is finite. We show that the sojourn time or departure process does not depend on the capacity of the finite buffer and on the order of nodes (service times), which are the same as the previous results. Furthermore, the explicit expressions of waiting times at the first node are given as a function of the capacity of the finite buffer and we are able to disclose a relationship of waiting times between under communication blocking and under manufacturing blocking. Some numerical examples are also given.

Recently there has been an increasing interest in queueing models with disasters. Upon arrival of a disaster, all the customers present are noshed out. Queueing models with disasters have been applied to the problems of failure recovery in many computer networks systems, database systems and telecommunication networks in this paper, we suffest the steady state and sojourn time distributions of the M/G/l model with disaster and mass alway when the system is empty.

In this study, we consider stationary waiting times in finite-buffer 3-node single-server queues in series with a Poisson arrival process and with either constant or non-overlapping service times. We assume that each node has a finite buffer except for the first node. The explicit expressions of waiting times in all areas of the stochastic system were driven as functions of finite buffer capacities. These explicit forms show that a system sojourn time does not depend on the finite buffer sizes, and also allow one to compute and compare characteristics of stationary waiting times at all areas under two blocking rules communication and manufacturing blocking. The goal of this study is to apply these results to an optimization problem which determines the smallest buffer capacities satisfying predetermined probabilistic constraints on stationary waiting times at all nodes. Numerical examples are also provided.

This paper presents a queuing analysis model of a PC-based software router supporting IPv6-IPv4 translation for residential gateway. The proposed models are M/G/1/K or MMPP-2/G/1/K by arrival process of the software PC router. M/G/1/K is a model of normal traffic and MMPP-2/G/1/K is a model of burst traffic. In M/G/1/K, the arriving process is assumed to be a Poisson process, which is independent and identically distributed. In MMPP-2/G/1/K, the arriving process is assumed to be two-state Markov Modulated Poisson Process (MMPP) which is changed from one state to another state with intensity. The service time distribution is general distribution and the service discipline of the server is processor sharing. Also, the total number of packets that can be processed at one time is limited to K. We obtain performance metrics of PC-based software router for residential gateway such as system sojourn time blocking probability and throughput based on the proposed model. Compared to other models, our model is simpler and it is easier to estimate model parameters. Validation results show that the model estimates the performance of the target system.

IEEE 802.11s-based infrastructure Wireless Mesh Networks (iWMNs) are envisaged as a promising solution to provide ubiquitous wireless Internet access. The limited network capacity is a problem mainly caused by the medium contention between mesh users and the mesh access points (MAPs), which gets worst when the mesh clients employ the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP). To mitigate this problem, we use wireless network coding (WNC) in the MAPs. The aim of this proposal is to take advantage of the network topology around the MAPs, to alleviate the contention and maximize the use of the network capacity. We evaluate WNC when is used in MAPs. We model the formation of coding opportunities and, using computer simulations, we evaluate the formation of such coding opportunities. The results show that as the users density grows, the coding opportunities increase up to 70%; however, at the same time, the coding delay increments significantly. In order to reduce such delay, we propose to adaptively adjust the time that a packet can wait to catch a coding opportunity in an MAP. We assess the performance of moving-average estimation methods to forecast this adaptive sojourn time. We show that using moving-average estimation methods can significantly decrease the coding delay since they consider the traffic density conditions.
