An M/G/1 queue with Markov-dependent exceptional service times
This paper considers an M/G/1 queue in which service time distributions in each busy period change according to a finite state Markov chain, embedded at the arrival instants of cu...

Automated compositional Markov chain generation for a plain-old telephone system
Obtaining performance models, like Markov chains and queueing networks, for systems of significant complexity and magnitude is a difficult task that is usually tackled using human...

Path coupling without contraction
Path coupling is a useful technique for simplifying the analysis of a coupling of a Markov chain. Rather than defining and analysing the coupling on every pair in Ω×Ω, where...

Markov Chain Modelling of the Probabilistic Packet Marking Algorithm
In this work, we show that the current termination condition of the Probabilistic Packet Marking (PPM) algorithm is not correct for general networks, and this implies the estimati...

The Value of Markov Chain Games with Lack of Information on One Side
We consider a two-player zero-sum game given by a Markov chain over a finite set of states K and a family of zero-sum matrix games (Gk)kK. The sequence of states follows the Marko...

Enabling access-privacy for random walk based data analysis applications
Random walk graph and Markov chain based models are used heavily in many data and system analysis domains, including web, bioinformatics, and queuing. These models enable the desc...

MAC Layer RFID Protocol for Low Cost Object Identification
In this paper, we introduce a novel medium access control (MAC) protocol for Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) systems. This protocol exploits the Markov Chain Model of Slotted...
