(R2073) Analysis Of Mmap/Ph(1), Ph(2)/1 Preemptive Priority Queueing Model With Single Vacation, Repair And Impatient Customers, S. Meena, G. Ayyappan

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

In this paper, we analyse a single server preemptive priority queue with phase-type vacation and repair, feedback, working breakdown, close-down and impatient customers. Customers arrive according to the Marked Markovian Arrival Process and their service time according to Phase-type distribution. If the High Priority customers need feedback, they lose their priority and join the Low Priority queue. At any instant, if the server is broken down, the server provide service with slow mode for that current customer and then the server will go into a repair process. When there are no customers present in both the queues, the server close-down …

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

The application of mathematical biology and dynamical systems has proven to be an effective approach for studying viral infection models. To contribute to this research, our paper proposes a new CHIKV model that takes into account an adaptive immune response and distributed time delays, which accurately reflects the time lag between initial viral contacts and the production of new active CHIKV particles. By analyzing the model’s qualitative behavior, we establish a biological threshold number that can predict whether CHIKV will be cleared from or persist in the body. We demonstrate the global stability of both CHIKV-present and CHIKV-free steady states …

The Adultification Of African American Girls: Perceptions, Experiences, And Impact On Behavior, Sherie Sara Sam

All Dissertations

Adultification occurs when adults treat children like they are more mature than they are. This is particularly likely to happen to African American children (Pope, 2022). Adultification in homes is the result of deficits in the adult figures; however, adultification outside of the family, cemented with implicit biases, has negative consequences for young African American children (Cooke & Halberstadt, 2021). These biases can negatively impact their self-concept. Furthermore, it may jeopardize their health, education, experiences with discipline, and likelihood of contact with the justice system (Koch & Kozhumam, 2022).

This qualitative descriptive study utilized focus groups of primarily young adults …

Fuzzy Software Reliability And Optimal Release Policy With Log-Logistic Testing Effort: An Analysis, Seema Rani, Jitendra Kumar, N. Ahmad

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

We will discuss a Software Reliability Growth Model (SRGM) using fuzzy and imperfect debugging environments; we integrate Log-Logistic (LL) Testing Effort Function (TEF) into fuzzy SRGMs. Estimation methods, such as Least Square and Maximum Likelihood, are used to obtain the value of Testing-Effort and SRGMs parameters. It is not always possible and is constantly required to quantify the exact value of parameters. Due to human conduct, the value of Testing-Effort and SRGM parameters cannot be exactly quantified. In this scenario, parameters are supposed to be vague or fuzzy. To make the software consistent, the developer needs to propose some quantity …

Construction Of Normal Polynomials Using Composition Of Polynomials Over Finite Fields Of Odd Characteristic, Shalini Gupta, Manpreet Singh, Rozy Sharma

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

A monic irreducible polynomial is known as a normal polynomial if its roots are linearly independent over Galois field. Normal polynomials over finite fields and their significance have been studied quite well. Normal polynomials have applications in different fields such as computer science, number theory, finite geometry, cryptography and coding theory. Several authors have given different algorithms for the construction of normal polynomials. In the present paper, we discuss the construction of the normal polynomials over finite fields of prime characteristic by using the method of composition of polynomials.

Female Breast Cancer Survivor’S Perspective Of Support Systems In Trinidad And Tobago, Andrea Mcdonald, Isabella Granderson, Olivia Johnson, Antoinette W. Coward, Brendon Bhagwandeen

The Journal of the Research Association of Minority Professors

Globally, breast cancer is the most common cancer affecting women. The Cancer Registry of Trinidad and Tobago indicated that 45.9% of the breast cancer cases belonged to the African ethnicity, 27.5% Asian Indian, and 14.7% mixed ethnicity. Research on female breast cancer survivors' perspectives on support systems and care within the Caribbean region is limited. Therefore, this study aims to examine female breast cancer survivors' perspective of support systems in Trinidad and Tobago. We conducted a cross-sectional study with 74 cancer survivors attending support groups. To be eligible, the participants had to be females 18 years or older, residents of …
