Sensitivity of Performance in the Erlang-A Queueing Model to Changes in the Model Parameters
This paper studies the M/M/s+M queue, i.e., the M/M/s queue with customer abandonment, also called the Erlang-A model, having independent and identically distributed customer aban...

Performability Models for Multi-Server Systems with High-Variance Repair Durations
We consider cluster systems with multiple nodes where each server is prone to run tasks at a degraded level of service due to some software or hardware fault. The cluster serves t...
