The Mx/G/1 Queue With Unreliable Server, Delayed Repairs, And Bernoulli Vacation Schedule Under T-Policy, L. Tadj, G. Choudhury

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

In this paper we study a batch arrival queuing system. The server may break down while delivering service. However, repair is not provided immediately, rather it is delayed for a random amount of time. At the end of service, the server may process the next customer if any are available, or may take a vacation to execute some other job. Finally, the server implements the T-policy. We describe for this system an optimal management policy. Numerical examples are provided.

Local Influence In Bayesian Elliptically Contoured-Ordinal Model For Mixed Data, Ehsan B. Samani Dec 2013

Local Influence In Bayesian Elliptically Contoured-Ordinal Model For Mixed Data, Ehsan B. Samani

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

This paper develops a new class of joint modeling of mixed correlated ordinal and continuous responses with elliptically contoured errors. This joint model includes the latent variable approach of using an elliptically contoured distribution for mixed ordinal and continuous responses. A Markov Chain Monte Carlo sampling algorithm is described for estimating the posterior distribution of the parameters. For sensitivity analysis to investigate the perturbation from associate responses, it is demonstrated how one can use some elements of covariance structure. Influence of small perturbation of these elements on the posterior normal curvature is also studied. To illustrate the application of such …

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

We propose an e-epidemic fuzzy SEIQRS (Susceptible-Exposed-Infectious-Quarantine- Recovered-Susceptible) model for the transmission of malicious codes in a computer network. We have simulated the result for various parameters and analyzed the stability of the model. The efficiency of antivirus software and crashing of the nodes due to attack of malicious code is analyzed. Furthermore, initial simulation results illustrate the behavior of different classes for minimizing the infection in a computer network. It also reflects the positive impact of anti-virus software on malicious code propagation in a computer network. The basic reproduction number R0 f and its formulation is also discussed.

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

New methods are being presented for statistical treatment of different random variables with unknown probability distributions. These include analysis based on the probability circles, probability ellipses, generalized mean values, generalized Pearson correlation coefficient and the beta-function analysis. Unlike other conventional statistical procedures, the main distinctive feature of these new methods is that no assumptions are made about the nature of the probability distribution of the random series being evaluated. Furthermore, the suggested procedures do not introduce uncontrollable errors during their application. The effectiveness of these methods is demonstrated on simulated data with extended and reduced sample sizes having different probability …

Analysis Of Mixed Correlated Bivariate Negative Binomial And Continuous Responses, F. Razie, E. B. Samani, M. Ganjali

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

A general model for the mixed correlated negative binomial and continuous responses is proposed. It is shown how to construct parameter of the models, using the maximization of the full likelihood. Influence of a small perturbation of correlation parameter of the model on the likelihood displacement is also studied. The model is applied to a medical data, obtained from an observational study on women, where the correlated responses are the negative binomial response of joint damage and continuous responses of body mass index. Simultaneous effects of some covariates on both responses are investigated.

The Underlying Physiology Of Arterial Pulse Wave Morphology In Spatial Domain, Nzerem F. Egenti, Alozie H. Nkechi Dec 2013

The Underlying Physiology Of Arterial Pulse Wave Morphology In Spatial Domain, Nzerem F. Egenti, Alozie H. Nkechi

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

Cardio-vascular events are among the world’s leading causes of morbidity and mortality. Most postulates suppose that culinary delights can be implicated in incidences of cardio-vascular diseases. This school of thought holds well in many respects. Much as the truistic value of the said school is acknowledged, we conceived of physiological disposition as an endogenous dominant factor in the events being considered, whereas culinary measures constitute an exogenous contributory factor. In this work we aimed at studying the effects of distance (stature) on pulse waveforms. Certain elements of our study showed that pulse wavelength was dominant in prescribing cardio-vascular physiology.

Several New Families Of Jarratt’S Method For Solving Systems Of Nonlinear Equations, V. Kanwar, Sanjeev Kumar, Ramandeep Behl Dec 2013

Several New Families Of Jarratt’S Method For Solving Systems Of Nonlinear Equations, V. Kanwar, Sanjeev Kumar, Ramandeep Behl

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

In this study, we suggest and analyze a new and wide general class of Jarratt’s method for solving systems of nonlinear equations. These methods have fourth-order convergence and do not require the evaluation of any second or higher-order Fréchet derivatives. In terms of computational cost, all these methods require evaluations of one function and two first-order Fréchet derivatives. The performance of proposed methods is compared with their closest competitors in a series of numerical experiments. It is worth mentioning that all the methods considered here are found to be effective and comparable to the robust methods available in the literature.

Earlier techniques for encryption and decryption of image data discussed missing the keys, but in this approach, both the keys and the arrangement of RHC are emphasized. Additionally, keys multiplication side (pre or post) over a grayscale-image data matrix also inevitable to know, to correctly decrypt the encrypted image …

Generalized Fractional Integral Of The Product Of Two Aleph-Functions, R. K. Saxena, J. Ram, D. Kumar Dec 2013

Generalized Fractional Integral Of The Product Of Two Aleph-Functions, R. K. Saxena, J. Ram, D. Kumar

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

This paper is devoted to the study and develops the generalized fractional integral operators for a new special function, which is called Aleph-function. The considered generalized fractional integration operators contain the Appell hypergeometric function F3 as a kernel. We establish two results of the product of two Aleph-functions involving Saigo-Maeda operators. On account of the general nature of the Saigo-Maeda operators and the Aleph-function, some results involving Saigo, Riemann-Liouville and Erdélyi-Kober integral operators are obtained as special cases of the main result.

Reducibility Of Eulerian Graphs And Digraphs, Akram B. Attar Dec 2013

Reducibility Of Eulerian Graphs And Digraphs, Akram B. Attar

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

In this paper the concept of reducibility in graph theory is discussed, and the deletable vertex (edge) in graph (digraph) is defined. The class of graphs (digraphs) ℛ is called vertex (edge) reducible if for any G∈ ℛ either ℛ is the trivial graph (null graph) or it contains a vertex (edge) v such that G-v∈ ℛ. We introduce some classes of graphs (digraphs) which are reducible and others which are not. The vertex reducibility and edge reducibility of Eulerian graphs and Eulerian digraphs have also been studied.
