The data contained here were obtained from the National Highway Transportation Safety Administration׳s National Automotive Sampling System – Crashworthiness Data System (NASS-CDS) for the years 2008–2014. This publically available data set monitors motor vehicle crashes in the United States, using a stratified random sample frame, resulting in information on approximately 5000 crashes each year that can be utilized to create national estimates for crashes. The NASS-CDS data sets document vehicle, crash, and occupant factors. These data can be utilized to examine public health, law enforcement, roadway planning, and vehicle design issues. The data provided in this brief are a subset …


A Multi-Server Markovian Queueing Model With Primary And Secondary Services, Valentina Klimenok, Srinivas R. Chakravarthy, Alexander Dudin Jan 2005

A Multi-Server Markovian Queueing Model With Primary And Secondary Services, Valentina Klimenok, Srinivas R. Chakravarthy, Alexander Dudin

Industrial & Manufacturing Engineering Presentations And Conference Materials

We study a multi-server queueing model in which the arrivals occur according to a Markovian arrival process. An arriving customer either (a) is lost due to all main servers being busy; or (b) enters into service with one of the main servers and leaves the system (as a satisfied primary customer); (c) enters into a service with one of the main servers, gets service in self-service mode, and is impatient to get a final service with one of the main servers, may leave the system (as a dissatisfied secondary customer); or (d) enters into service with one of the main …


How To Increase The Ability Of A Student To Learn, Srinivas R. Chakravarthy Jun 2004

How To Increase The Ability Of A Student To Learn, Srinivas R. Chakravarthy

Industrial & Manufacturing Engineering Presentations And Conference Materials

An instructor is always challenged when covering the materials in a course (according to the syllabus) and at the same time making sure that all students have the opportunity to learn and understand the materials presented in the classroom. In this paper we will present some ideas and tools that enable one to try to achieve a balance. These are based on the author’s experience and perspective in teaching deterministic and stochastic operations research courses.
