Ground Delay Program Planning under Uncertainty Based on the Ration-by-Distance Principle

Ball, Michael O. - 2011

This paper presents ration-by-distance (RBD), a new allocation method to be used in planning ground delay programs (GDPs) for Traffic Flow Management. It is shown that RBD minimizes total expected delay, under certain assumptions related to the manner in which GDP's are dynamically controlled....

Optimal Allocation of Effort to Software Maintenance : A Queuing Theory Approach

Kulkarni, Vidyadhar G.; Kumar, Subodha; Mookerjee, Vijay S. - 2011

We develop variations of the M|G|1 queue to model the process of software maintenance within organizations and use these models to compute the optimal allocation of resources to software maintenance. User requests are assumed to arrive following a Poisson process and a binomial distribution is...
