A method of rare event simulation, termed here quantum simulation, and known also (with some variations) as population Monte Carlo, and Sequential Markov Chain simulation, is appli...
Define the traffic intensity as the ratio of the arrival rate to the service rate. This paper shows that the BMAP/PH/s/s+K retrial queue with PH-retrial times is ergodic if and onl...
In this work, we discuss practical methods for the assessment, comparison, and selection of complex hierarchical Bayesian models. A natural way to assess the goodness of the model...
