We consider a firm that faces random demand and receives product from a single supplier who faces random supply. The supplier's availability may be affected by events such as...
In this paper we consider a Poisson cluster process N as a generating process for the arrivals of packets to a server. This process generalizes in a more realistic way the infinite...
We study an online random linear network coding approach for time division duplexing (TDD) channels under Poisson arrivals. We model the system as a bulk-service queue with variabl...
Synchronization is often necessary in parallel computing, but it can create delays whenever the receiving processor is idle, waiting for the information to arrive. This is especia...
Randomness is inherent to biochemistry: at each instant, the sequence of reactions that fires is a matter of chance. Some biological systems exploit such randomness, choosing betw...
