Poisson Processes Stochastic Processes
Poisson Processes Stochastic Processes UC3M Feb. 2012 Exponential random variables A random variable T has exponential distribution with rate λ > 0 if its probability density function can been written as −λt f (t) = λe 1(0;+1)(t) We summarize the above by T ∼ exp(λ): The cumulative distribution function of a exponential random variable is −λt F (t) = P(T ≤ t) = 1 − e 1(0;+1)(t) And the tail, expectation and variance are P(T > t) = e−λt ; E[T ] = λ−1; and Var(T ) = E[T ] = λ−2 The exponential random variable has the lack of memory property P(T > t + sjT > t) = P(T > s) Exponencial races In what follows, T1;:::; Tn are independent r.v., with Ti ∼ exp(λi ). P1: min(T1;:::; Tn) ∼ exp(λ1 + ··· + λn) . P2 λ1 P(T1 < T2) = λ1 + λ2 P3: λi P(Ti = min(T1;:::; Tn)) = λ1 + ··· + λn P4: If λi = λ and Sn = T1 + ··· + Tn ∼ Γ(n; λ). That is, Sn has probability density function (λs)n−1 f (s) = λe−λs 1 (s) Sn (n − 1)! (0;+1) The Poisson Process as a renewal process Let T1; T2;::: be a sequence of i.i.d. nonnegative r.v. (interarrival times). Define the arrival times Sn = T1 + ··· + Tn if n ≥ 1 and S0 = 0: The process N(t) = maxfn : Sn ≤ tg; is called Renewal Process. If the common distribution of the times is the exponential distribution with rate λ then process is called Poisson Process of with rate λ. Lemma. N(t) ∼ Poisson(λt) and N(t + s) − N(s); t ≥ 0; is a Poisson process independent of N(s); t ≥ 0 The Poisson Process as a L´evy Process A stochastic process fX (t); t ≥ 0g is a L´evyProcess if it verifies the following properties: 1. -

A Survey of Parameter and State Estimation in Queues
A Survey of Parameter and State Estimation in Queues Azam Asanjarani,∗ Yoni Nazarathy,† Peter Taylor ‡. Abstract We present a broad literature survey of parameter and state estimation for queueing systems. Our approach is based on various inference activities, queueing models, observations schemes, and statistical methods. We categorize these into branches of research that we call estimation paradigms. These include: the classical sampling approach, inverse problems, inference for non- interacting systems, inference with discrete sampling, inference with queueing fundamentals, queue inference engine problems, Bayesian approaches, online prediction, implicit models, and control, design, and uncertainty quantification. For each of these estimation paradigms, we outline the principles and ideas, while surveying key references. We also present various simple numerical experiments. In addition to some key references mentioned here, a periodically-updated compre- hensive list of references dealing with parameter and state estimation of queues will be kept in an accompanying annotated bibliography. 1 Introduction Queues occur in retail, health-care, telecommunications, manufacturing, road traffic, social justice systems, call centres and many other environments. To aid in understanding such systems, mathemati- cal queueing models have been studied and employed for over a century. Such models allow researchers and practitioners to predict congestion and delay behaviour based on assumptions about the underlying stochastic processes. The field has grown together with the field of applied probability and constitutes a significant part of the world of stochastic operations research. Indeed, queueing phenomena are both fascinating and important to understand from a practical perspective. The basic building block of most queueing analysis research involves a queueing model. As an exam- ple, consider a model called the M/D/1 queue. -
Extinction, Survival and Duality to P-Jump Processes
Markov branching processes with disasters: extinction, survival and duality to p-jump processes by Felix Hermann and Peter Pfaffelhuber Albert-Ludwigs University Freiburg Abstract A p-jump process is a piecewise deterministic Markov process with jumps by a factor of p. We prove a limit theorem for such processes on the unit interval. Via duality with re- spect to probability generating functions, we deduce limiting results for the survival proba- bilities of time-homogeneous branching processes with arbitrary offspring distributions, un- derlying binomial disasters. Extending this method, we obtain corresponding results for time-inhomogeneous birth-death processes underlying time-dependent binomial disasters and continuous state branching processes with p-jumps. 1 Introduction Consider a population evolving according to a branching process ′. In addition to reproduction events, global events called disasters occur at some random times Z(independent of ′) that kill off every individual alive with probability 1 p (0, 1), independently of each other.Z The resulting process of population sizes will be called− a branching∈ process subject to binomial disasters with survival probability p. ProvidedZ no information regarding fitness of the individuals in terms of resistance against disasters, this binomial approach appears intuitive, since the survival events of single individuals are iid. Applications span from natural disasters as floods and droughts to effects of radiation treatment or chemotherapy on cancer cells as well as antibiotics on popula- tions of bacteria. Also, Bernoulli sampling comes into mind as in the Lenski Experiment (cf. arXiv:1808.00073v2 [math.PR] 7 Jan 2019 Casanova et al., 2016). In the general setting of Bellman-Harris processes with non-lattice lifetime-distribution subject to binomial disasters, Kaplan et al. -

Joint Pricing and Inventory Control for a Stochastic Inventory System With
Joint pricing and inventory control for a stochastic inventory system with Brownian motion demand Dacheng Yao Academy of Mathematics and Systems Science, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing, 100190, China; [email protected] Abstract In this paper, we consider an infinite horizon, continuous-review, stochastic inventory system in which cumulative customers' demand is price-dependent and is modeled as a Brownian motion. Excess demand is backlogged. The revenue is earned by selling products and the costs are incurred by holding/shortage and ordering, the latter consists of a fixed cost and a proportional cost. Our objective is to simultaneously determine a pricing strategy and an inventory control strategy to maximize the expected long-run average profit. Specifically, the pricing strategy provides the price pt for any time t ≥ 0 and the inventory control strategy characterizes when and how much we need to order. We show that an (s∗;S∗; p∗) policy is ∗ ∗ optimal and obtain the equations of optimal policy parameters, where p = fpt : t ≥ 0g. ∗ Furthermore, we find that at each time t, the optimal price pt depends on the current inventory level z, and it is increasing in [s∗; z∗] and is decreasing in [z∗; 1), where z∗ is a negative level. Keywords: Stochastic inventory model, pricing, Brownian motion demand, (s; S; p) policy, impulse control, drift rate control. arXiv:1608.03033v2 [math.OC] 11 Jul 2017 1 Introduction Exogenous selling price is always assumed in the classic production/inventory models; see e.g., Scarf(1960) and the research thereafter. In practice, however, dynamic pricing is one important tool for revenue management by balancing customers' demand and inventory level. -
Performance Analysis of Two-Way Communication Retrial Queueing Systems with Non-Reliable Server and Impatient Customers in the Orbit∗
Performance Analysis of Two-Way Communication Retrial Queueing Systems With Non-Reliable Server and Impatient Customers in the Orbit∗ Ádám Tóth, János Sztrik Faculty of Informatics, University of Debrecen, Debrecen, Hungary [email protected] [email protected] Proceedings of the 1st Conference on Information Technology and Data Science Debrecen, Hungary, November 6–8, 2020 published at http://ceur-ws.org Abstract Many models of two-way communication queueing systems have been studied in recent years, they can be utilized in many fields of life like in [7, 28, 30]. Customers have always been characterized by the phenomena of impatience due to the long waiting time for service [4, 14, 15, 27]. In this pa- per, we consider two-way communication systems with a non-reliable server where primary customers may decide to leave the system after spending a considerable amount of time in the system before getting its proper service. The service unit can break down during its operation or in an idle state, too. Whenever the server becomes idle it may generate requests towards the customers’ residing in an infinite source. These requests, the so-called sec- ondary customers, can enter the system after a random time if the service unit is available and functional upon their arrivals. Otherwise, they return to the source without coming into the system. Every primary customer has a property of impatience meaning that an arbitrary request has the ability to Copyright © 2021 for this paper by its authors.

Renewal and Regenerative Processes
Chapter 2 Renewal and Regenerative Processes Renewal and regenerative processes are models of stochastic phenomena in which an event (or combination of events) occurs repeatedly over time, and the times between occurrences are i.i.d. Models of such phenomena typically focus on determining limiting averages for costs or other system parameters, or establishing whether certain probabilities or expected values for a system converge over time, and evaluating their limits. The chapter begins with elementary properties of renewal processes, in- cluding several strong laws of large numbers for renewal and related stochastic processes. The next part of the chapter covers Blackwell’s renewal theorem, and an equivalent key renewal theorem. These results are important tools for characterizing the limiting behavior of probabilities and expectations of stochastic processes. We present strong laws of large numbers and central limit theorems for Markov chains and regenerative processes in terms of a process with regenerative increments (which is essentially a random walk with auxiliary paths). The rest of the chapter is devoted to studying regenera- tive processes (including ergodic Markov chains), processes with regenerative increments, terminating renewal processes, and stationary renewal processes. 2.1 Renewal Processes This section introduces renewal processes and presents several examples. The discussion covers Poisson processes and renewal processes that are “embed- ded” in stochastic processes. We begin with notation and terminology for point processes that we use in later chapters as well. Suppose 0 ≤ T1 ≤ T2 ≤ ... are finite random times at which a certain event occurs. The number of the times Tn in the interval (0,t]is ∞ N(t)= 1(Tn ≤ t),t≥ 0. -

Exploiting Regenerative Structure to Estimate Finite Time Averages Via Simulation
EXPLOITING REGENERATIVE STRUCTURE TO ESTIMATE FINITE TIME AVERAGES VIA SIMULATION Wanmo Kang, Perwez Shahabuddin* and Ward Whitt Columbia University We propose nonstandard simulation estimators of expected time averages over ¯nite intervals [0; t], seeking to enhance estimation e±ciency. We make three key assumptions: (i) the underlying stochastic process has regenerative structure, (ii) the time average approaches a known limit as time t increases and (iii) time 0 is a regeneration time. To exploit those properties, we propose a residual-cycle estimator, based on data from the regenerative cycle in progress at time t, using only the data after time t. We prove that the residual-cycle estimator is unbiased and more e±cient than the standard estimator for all su±ciently large t. Since the relative e±ciency increases in t, the method is ideally suited to use when applying simulation to study the rate of convergence to the known limit. We also consider two other simulation techniques to be used with the residual-cycle estimator. The ¯rst involves overlapping cycles, paralleling the technique of overlapping batch means in steady-state estimation; multiple observations are taken from each replication, starting a new observation each time the initial regenerative state is revisited. The other technique is splitting, which involves independent replications of the terminal period after time t, for each simulation up to time t. We demonstrate that these alternative estimators provide e±ciency improvement by conducting simulations of queueing models.
