We consider a two-stage service policy for a Poisson arrival queueing system. The idle server starts to work with ordinary service rate when a customer arrives. If the number of customers in the system reaches N, the service rate gets faster and continues until the system becomes empty....

We use martingale methods to obtain an explicit formula for the expected wet period of the finite dam of capacity V, where the amounts of inputs are i.i.d exponential random variables and the output rate is one, when the reservoir is not empty. As a consequence, we obtain an explicit formula for...

In this article we propose a simple method of identifying, at an earlier stage of analysis, the nested structure among the coefficient matrices in multivariate regression models. When the limiting distribution of the estimators of the coefficient matrices are jointly normal, the Wald type...
