A time-shared machine repair problem with mixed spares under N-policy

Abstract: The present investigation deals with a machine repair problem consisting of cold and warm standby machines. The machines are subject to breakdown and are repaired by the permanent repairman operating under N-policy. There is provision of one additional removable repairman who is called upon when the work load of failed machines crosses a certain threshold level and is removed as soon as the work load again ceases to that level. Both repairmen recover the failed machines by following the time sharing concept wh… Show more

“…A cost relationship was constructed by the Jain et al (2005) to determine the optimal threshold level of processors being active in order to gain maximum net profit for the time-shared service systems with queue-dependent processors. Jain et al (2016a, b) obtained the state probabilities for Markovian machine repair problem with spares operating under N -policy and time-sharing basis. To determine a service policy to maximize the long run reward rate earned from the serving customers in single-server queueing system with multiple classes and impatient customers, James et al .…”

“…Recently, by taking an example, Yang and Chang (2015) showed that the queueing model can be applied in the automobile industry to demonstrate the practicability of F -policy queue with the fuzzy environment. The sensitivity analysis of various performance characteristics of Markov model was presented by Jain et al (2016a, b) for the performance prediction of the redundant system with working vacation policy and controllable F -policy. The interrelationship between the randomized F -policy and randomized N -policy was investigated by Goswami (2016) to analyze the queueing system with startup time.…”

“…It is an important type of finite source queueing system where the stopped servers can be replaced with another working one to ensure the continuity of the system's operation. Shekhar et al 1 โ€“ 3 and Jain et al 4 , 5 presented many classical models with some particular conditions to study the performance measures of the machine-repairing queueing systems. After the repairing process is done for the damaged unit (one of the stopped-working servers) by using the spares, it is replaced by another damaged one.…”
