    Notes: Abstract In this paper, we study the steady-state queue size distribution of the discrete-timeGeo/G/1 retrial queue. We derive analytic formulas for the probability generating function of the number of customers in the system in steady-state. It is shown that the stochastic decomposition law holds for theGeo/G/1 retrial queue. Recursive formulas for the steady-state probabilities are developed. Computations based on these recursive formulas are numerically stable because the recursions involve only nonnegative terms. Since the regularGeo/G/1 queue is a special case of theGeo/G/1 retrial queue, the recursive formulas can also be used to compute the steady-state queue size distribution of the regularGeo/G/1 queue. Furthermore, it is shown that a continuous-timeM/G/1 retrial queue can be approximated by a discrete-timeGeo/G/1 retrial queue by dividing the time into small intervals of equal length and the approximation approaches the exact when the length of the interval tends to zero. This relationship allows us to apply the recursive formulas derived in this paper to compute the approximate steady-state queue size distribution of the continuous-timeM/G/1 retrial queue and the regularM/G/1 queue.

    Batch sizes and lead-time performance in flexible manufacturing systems (1996)
    Springer
    International journal of flexible manufacturing systems 8 (1996), S. 5-21 
    Details
    ISSN: 1572-9370
    Keywords: flexible manufacturing systems ; batch sizes ; lead-times

    Notes: Abstract Production lead-time performance in flexible manufacturing systems is influenced by several factors which include: machine groupings, demand rates, machine processing rates, product batching, material handling system capacity, and so on. Hence, control of lead-time performance can be affected through the manipulation of one or more of these variables. In this article, we investigate the potential of batch sizing as a control variable for lead-time performance through the use of a queueing network model. We establish a functional relationship between the two variables, and incorporate the relationship in an optimization model to determine the optimal batch size(s) which minimizes the sum of annual work-in-process inventory and final inventory costs. The nonlinear batch sizing problem which results is solved by discrete optimization via marginal analysis. Results show that batch sizing can be a cheap and effective variable for controlling flexible manufacturing system throughput.

    Promotion of stem elongation by indole-3-butyric acid in intact plants of Pisum sativum L. (1999)

    Notes: Abstract While indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) has been confirmed to be an endogenous form of auxin in peas, and may occur in the shoot tip in a level higher than that of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), the physiological significance of IBA in plants remains unclear. Recent evidence suggests that endogenous IAA may play an important role in controlling stem elongation in peas. To analyze the potential contribution of IBA to stem growth we determined the effectiveness of exogenous IBA in stimulating stem elongation in intact light-grown pea seedlings. Aqueous IBA, directly applied to the growing internodes via a cotton wick, was found to be nearly as effective as IAA in inducing stem elongation, even though the action of IBA appeared to be slower than that of IAA. Apically applied IBA was able to stimulate elongation of the subtending internodes, indicating that IBA is transported downwards in the stem tissue. The profiles of growth kinetics and distribution suggest that the basipetal transport of IBA in the intact plant stem is slower than that of IAA. Following withdrawal of an application, the residual effect of IBA in growth stimulation was markedly stronger than that of IAA, which may support the notion that IBA conjugates can be a better source of free auxin through hydrolysis than IAA conjugates. It is suggested that IBA may serve as a physiologically active form of auxin in contributing to stem elongation in intact plants.
