Calculating the equilibrium distribution in level dependent quasi-birth-and-death processes

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors considered the problem of computing equilibrium distributions in level dependent quasi-birth-and-death (QBD) processes, which are an extension of the classical QBD process.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bitcoin blockchain dynamics: The selfish-mine strategy in the presence of propagation delay

TL;DR: The models indicate that both the dishonest and the honest miners were worse off than they would have been if no dishonest mining were present, and that it is possible for the mining community to detect block-hiding behaviour, such as that used in selfish-mine, by monitoring the rate of production of orphan blocks.
Journal ArticleDOI

Citation Statistics

TL;DR: The use and misuse of citation data in the assessment of scientific research is discussed in this article, where citation statistics are inherently more accurate because they substitute simple numbers for complex judgments, and hence overcome the possible subjectivity of peer review.
Journal ArticleDOI

Product form in networks of queues with batch arrivals and batch services

TL;DR: A product form equilibrium distribution is derived for a class of queueing networks in either discrete or continuous time, in which multiple customers arrive simultaneously and batches of customers complete service simultaneously.
Journal ArticleDOI

Brownian ratchets and Parrondo's games.

TL;DR: The combination of Parrondo's games can be therefore considered as a discrete-time Brownian ratchet, and the parameter space in which the paradoxical effect occurs is found and the winning rate analysis is carried out.
