Queueing theory

Queueing Theory and Adaptive Scheduling Algorithm for Real-Time Operating System Abstract— Queueing theory is the mathematical study of waiting lines, or queues. In queueing theory a model is constructed so that queue lengths and waiting time can be predicted. Queueing theory is generally considered a branch of operations research because the results are often used when making business decisions about the resources needed to provide a service. EDF (Earliest Deadline First) has been proved to be

Applications of queueing theory in hospital management: a literature review Abstract This paper reviews the applications and usage of the queueing theory in the aspect of health care management problems. This paper review presents a way of optimizing the use of hospital resources in order to improve hospital care. A queueing model is used to determine the main characteristics of the access of patients to hospital beds, such as mean bed occupancy and the probability that hospital care demand is lost

assuming that K = ∞ for modelling purposes. Thus busy signals are absent in the models to be considered. The classical M/M/N queueing model, also called the Erlang-C model, is obtained by further assuming Poisson arrivals, exponentially distributed service times and no abandonment. It is the model most often used in call center analysis. (O. Garnett, 2002) In probability theory, a Poisson process is a stochastic

available to do the required tasks in one particular time. This definition can be translated into two meanings, they are: 1. Scheduling as the function of decision making or scheduling as a part of the process to determine the sorting. 2. Scheduling is a theory. Scheduling is a set of principals, model, technique and logical conclusion in decision making. Scheduling is

The Customer Queuing Systems Luis A. Alvarado Business 425 Instructor Dr. Bates March 17, 2012 Abstract In this essay, two companies will be identified and described on how they utilize a queuing system. Only two of the four most basic waiting line structures will be discussed: single-server and multiple-server waiting lines. Since waiting is an integral part of many service related operations, it is an important area of analysis. Each queue system has its advantages and

The topic of this report is an analysis of a Shopper’s Drug Mart queuing system. At Shoppers Drug Mart, there are multiple places where queues are formed; regular check-out line, beauty check-out line, at the pharmacy and at the post office. For this analysis, we only looked at the two different check-out lines, the set of regular servers near the front of the store and also the check-out line for the beauty department. At this location, we noticed there were only two cashiers (servers) handling
