Exact aggregate solutions for M/G/1-type Markov processes
We introduce a new methodology for the exact analysis of M/G/1-type Markov processes. The methodology uses basic, well-known results for Markov chains by exploiting the structure ...

The How and Why of Interactive Markov Chains
This paper reviews the model of interactive Markov chains (IMCs, for short), an extension of labelled transition systems with exponentially delayed transitions. We show that IMCs a...

Speeding up call center simulation and optimization by Markov chain uniformization
Staffing and scheduling optimization in large multiskill call centers is time-consuming, mainly because it requires lengthy simulations to evaluate performance measures and their ...

Convergence of iterative aggregation/disaggregation methods based on splittings with cyclic iteration matrices
Iterative aggregation/disaggregation methods (IAD) belong to competitive tools for computation the characteristics of Markov chains as shown in some publications devoted to testing...

Supervised rank aggregation
This paper is concerned with rank aggregation, the task of combining the ranking results of individual rankers at meta-search. Previously, rank aggregation was performed mainly by...
