A GI (A, B/(A,Q)) /D/ 1/Qmax Queue Approach for the Estimation of the Proportion of a Deteriorated Length of a Road Network

P. M. Kgosi & R. Sivasamy · Journal of Advances in Mathematics and Computer Science · 2014

This article proposes a simple methodology for the classification of road segments of a highway into a set S={0, 1, 2 , …, Qmax} of states. A GI(A, B/(A,Qmax)/D/1/Qmax queueing approach, estimates the length of a deteriorated/damaged portion of a road network which requires recon...

A Class of Implicit Six Step Hybrid Backward Differentiation Formulas for the Solution of Second Order Differential Equations

Umaru Mohammed & Raphael Babatunde Adeniyi · Journal of Advances in Mathematics and Computer Science · 2014

In this paper, we propose a class implicit six step Hybrid Backward Differentiation Formulas (HBDF) for the solution of second order Initial Value Problems (IVPs). The method is derived by the interpolation and collocation of the assumed approximate solution. The single continuou...

Taylor Series Approach for Solving Multi-level Large Scale Fractional Programming Problem with Stochastic Parameters in Constraints

O. E. Emam, A. Abdo & N. H. Ibrahim · Journal of Advances in Mathematics and Computer Science · 2014

This paper presents a solution algorithm to solve a multi-level large scale fractional programming problem with individual chance constraints (CH-MLLSFP). We assume that there is randomness in the right-hand side of the constraints only and that the random variables are normally...

Stable Recovery of Sparse Signal in Compressed Sensing via the RIP of Order less than s

Hiroshi Inoue · Journal of Advances in Mathematics and Computer Science · 2014

Our goal is to reconstruct an unknown sparse signal. In this paper, we consider the feature of the sparse signal and research good conditions for the recovery of sparse signals. In detail, we assume that h ≡ x*−x and h = (h1; h2; · · · ; hn), where x is an unknown signal and x* i...

Periodic Solutions of a Time Delay Stage-structured Prey-predator Model

Yanqiu Li, Wei Duan Duan & Shujian Ma · Journal of Advances in Mathematics and Computer Science · 2014

The dynamics of a time delay stage-structured prey-predator model is investigated. Firstly, through the analysis of the eigenvalues, the effect of time delay on the stability of the positive equilibrium and the existence of Hopf bifurcation are obtained. Further, the stability an...

Polynomial Operator in the Shifts in Discrete Algebraic Dynamical Systems

Ramamonjy Andriamifidisoa & Juanito Andrianjanahary · Journal of Advances in Mathematics and Computer Science · 2014

The vector space of the multi-indexed sequences over a field and the vector space of the sequences with finite support are dual to each other, with respect to an appropriate scalar product. It follows that the polynomial operator in the shift which U. Oberst and J. C. Willems hav...
