The use of remote terminals to relieve airport congestion leads rather naturally to queueing systems with batch arrivals occuring at fixed time intervals to a multiple server service facility. In this paper arrival point steady-state solutions to the D[X]/M/c queueing system are presented....

New results are obtained for the single server queue with Poisson arrivals and exponential service times. A closed form solution involving only finite sums is obtained for the probability that exactly i arrivals and j services occur over a time interval of length t in a queueing system that is...

In recent years, many firms have become aware that environmental issues are critical barriers to the sustainability of a business. To overcome these barriers, several studies have been conducted to develop quantitative measurements associated with industry practices to prevent pollution and...

This paper considers a real-life identical parallel scheduling problem originating from the manufacturing plant producing polyvinyl chloride leather products. In the considered scheduling problem, each job has some attributes and each attribute has several different levels. Because there is at...
