Accurate calculations of Stationary Distributions and Mean First Passage Times in Markov Renewal Processes and Markov Chains
This article describes an accurate procedure for computing the mean first passage times of a finite irreducible Markov chain and a Markov renewal process. The method is a refinement to the Kohlas, Zeit fur Oper Res, 30, 197–207, (1986) procedure. The technique is numerically stable in that it doesn’t involve subtractions. Algebraic expressions for the special cases of one, two, three and four states are derived.Aconsequence of the procedure is that the stationary distribution of the embedded Markov...

Analysis of an MMAP/PH₁,PH₂/N/∞ queueing system operating in a random environment
A multi-server queueing system with two types of customers and an infinite buffer operating in a random environment as a model of a contact center is investigated. The arrival flow of customers is described by a marked Markovian arrival process. Type 1 customers have a non-preemptive priority over type 2 customers and can leave the buffer due to a lack of service. The service times of different type customers have a phase-type distribution with different parameters. To facilitate the investigation...

Approximation of the marginal distributions of a semi-Markov process using a finite volume scheme
In the reliability theory, the availability of a component, characterized by non constant failure and repair rates, is obtained, at a given time, thanks to the computation of the marginal distributions of a semi-Markov process. These measures are shown to satisfy classical transport equations, the approximation of which can be done thanks to a finite volume method. Within a uniqueness result for the continuous solution, the convergence of the numerical scheme is then proven in the weak measure sense,...
