Probabilistic Maximal Covering Location - Allocation Models with Constrained Waiting Time or Queue Length for Congested Systems

Marianov, Vladimir; Serra, Daniel - 1997

When dealing with the design of service networks, such as health and EMS services, banking or distributed ticket selling services, the location of service centers has a strong influence on the congestion at each of them, and consequently, on the quality of service. In this paper, several models...

Sample-Path Optimization of Buffer Allocations in a Tandem Queue - Part I : Theoretical Issues

Gürkan, G.; Ozge, A.Y. - Tilburg University, Center for Economic Research - 1996

This is the first of two papers dealing with the optimal bu er allocation problem in tandem manufacturing lines with unreliable machines.We address the theoretical issues that arise when using sample-path optimization, a simulation-based optimization method, to solve this problem.Sample-path...

Understanding interarrival and interdeparture time statistics from interactions in queuing systems

Helbing, Dirk; Treiber, Martin; Kesting, Arne - In: Physica A: Statistical Mechanics and its Applications 363 (2006) 1, pp. 62-72

We discuss the statistics of long queues, in which the interdeparture time statistics is dominated by spatial interactions among the elements in a queue rather than the arrival or exit processes. Based on a Fokker–Planck approach, it is possible to calculate the stationary distance...
