Journal of Informatics and Web Engineering
Faced with escalating operational costs and government disinvestment, Nigerian public universities are implementing tuition fee increases to maintain institutional functionality. This necessary fiscal measure comes in the wake of 2022 industrial action, which exacerbated pre-existing financial strain through extended work stoppages and potentially higher costs associated with resuming activities, while leaving unaddressed the longstanding demands of academics for improved welfare and working conditions. The court-mandated resumption of academic activities without resolution of these core issues further strained university finances, leading to a significant increase in tuition fees. Using VADER, this study investigated social media sentiments related to the increase in …

Queueing models where services are offered in groups (or blocks or batches) have shown to be very helpful in real-world applications and these queues have been well studied in the literature. In this paper we see one such group service queueing model with soft failure and reneging; here, by soft failure, we mean an emergency arrival. The arrival process is a Markovian arrival, whereas the emergency arrival follows an exponential distribution. Customers are served in groups ranging in size from 1 to a fixed constant, let’s say N. A batch’s service time is determined by the phase-type distribution that corresponds …
