Begeot, Jocelyn. "Autour de la stabilité de différents modèles d'appariements aléatoires." Electronic Thesis or Diss., Université de Lorraine, 2022. http://www.theses.fr/2022LORR0201.
Stochastic matching models represent many concrete stochastic systems in which elements of different classes are matched according to specified compatibility rules. For example, we can cite systems dedicated to organs allocation, job search sites, housing allocation programs, etc. Such models are typically associated to a triplet of elements: a connected graph, called compatibility graph, whose vertices represent the classes of elements that can enter the system and whose edges connect two compatible classes, amatching policy which decides the matches to be concretely executed, in case of multiple choices, and an arrival rate according to which the elements enter within it. In this thesis, we consider generalized graphs, meaning that we allow the matching of two elements of the same class, and we therefore extend to this framework some results already known in the case of simple graphs.The stability of a system governed by a matching model is a very important property. It ensures that the admissions within the system under study, are regulated, so that the elements do not accumulate in the system in the long run. It is therefore essential that the arrival rate of the elements allows the system to be stable. In this manuscript, we characterize, algebraically, this stability region for some matching models (general, general with reneging, bipartite, extended bipartite) or skill-based queueing systems.Moreover, we demonstrate that the matching policy called First Come, First Matched (FCFM) has the property of being (generalized) maximal, meaning that the stability region of the general matching model associated with a compatibility graph and with any policy is always included in the one associated with this same graph and ruled by FCFM. Note that this latter then coincides with a set of measures defined by purely algebraic conditions. In this case, the study of stability of the matching model at hand boils down to the more elementary question of characterizing of a deterministic set of measures. We then givea (simple) way to construct the measures belonging to the latter set. This turns out to be very useful for admission control, as checking the algebraic conditions requires a number of operations which is polynomial in the number of vertices of the considered compatibility graph, and therefore becomes very expensive as the number of vertices grows large.We also give, in a product form, the expression of the stationary distribution of the number-in-system process of a stable system governed by a general matching model and under the FCFM policy, allowing, in particular, to explicitly calculate characteristics at equilibrium of concrete systems and to estimate their long-time performance. We can thus, for example, calculate the size average at equilibrium of a waiting list in the case of cross-donation of kidneys, or even, estimate the average waiting time on a peer-to-peerinterface or on a dating website.Finally, the matching rates associated with a stable matching model (general or extended bipartite) are studied. They are defined as the asymptotic frequencies of the executed respective matchings, and provide an insightful performance criterion for the corresponding matching systems, as well as the policy-insensitivity and fairness properties of the matching rates, which are also discussed

Water quality has evolved legislatively from protection of navigation routes and quantity of sources to more emphasis on impairments on water quality for surface and groundwater sources. Nonpoint or diffuse sources of impairments represents a major challenge for management due to the complexity of its sources and difficulty in tracking.
The most cited sections on public policy analysis focuses on the overall process agencies employ to understand the results the program yields. Often overlooked are finer details and mechanisms, such as decision-making and priority setting, which have a great impact on the overall process. To investigate these factors, we need to analyze the decision-making process used by managers.
This study focuses on using information from those with direct involvement in the establishment and implementation of the Total Maximum Daily Load program for the state of Florida. This study used decision-making analysis models from Rational-Decision-Making and Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis concepts to construct questionnaires that looks to develop priorities as seen by managers’ preferences for several presented options. This methodology allowed us to structure the viewpoints and processes water quality managers use to breakdown decisions.
The analyzed results show water quality managers prefer strong management options, involvement from stakeholders with scientific knowledge, and data collected from the source or point of impact. Interestingly, opinions in the group show that urban best management practices are considered more effective than their agriculture counterparts with a disfavor for volunteer derived data.
Ultimately, the survey highlights the need for more robust enforcement and reliable measurement of non-point source of impairments. Continued public outreach and education, especially through workshops, are denoted as important tasks to completing successful TMDLs and should be expanded and strengthened by both the Florida Department of Environmental Protection and its boundary programs.

Renewable energy resources are stochastic with seasonal and diurnal patterns, making electricity generation by these resources difficult to predict, and making it difficult to plan future generation expansion. Understanding these patterns is critical in determining whether various renewable energy sources compound or compete against one another. Renewable generation may reach highest output at periods of low demand, or their lowest output during periods of high demand. Short-term electricity storage could provide load-leveling for short periods of time, storing electricity for later use. Further, momentary and hourly changes in renewable generation make it hard to maintain electrical stability in the system when large quantities of these sources are installed. Sufficient reserves must be maintained to meet electricity demand at all times, but these reserves - usually fossil generation units - may displace renewable energy generation. Energy storage could help maintain reliability and ensure that sufficient energy is produced to meet demand, while minimizing the use of fossil fuel from traditional generation sources and providing carbon-free spinning reserves. This research characterizes wind and hydro generation patterns in the Azores. For example, in Flores it was found that winter had highest renewable generation potential, but low electricity demand, and that summer had the highest demand, but fairly low renewable energy potential. This research then investigated the extent to which additional renewable capacity could be added to the Flores electricity system and the impact of energy storage on achieving higher renewable energy penetration. It was found that adding additional renewable capacity always increased the amount of renewable energy generation and reduced average annual production costs. Adding storage to the system increased renewable energy generation by 10% and reduced annual production costs by 16%. In addition, storage in amounts greater than 1 MWh had diminishing returns, and the largest benefit of energy storage was its ability to act as a spinning reserve, allowing diesel units to turn off.

The globalized market, in now a days, emphasizes that the ultimate goal and sustainable mission of the enterprise are to seek the maximum profit by the business model consisted of suppliers, manufacturers, distributors and inventory management on end- customer side; in this model, the sellers always seek the minimum cost by properly controlling the inventory with a inventory management strategy and forecasting of inventory. Failure to apply inventory management properly will result in surplus or shortage of demand and the impact of loss or mismanagement. In order to prevent the shortage of inventory and mismanagement and maintain the certain level of inventory to satisfy the fill rate, this study will focus on the optimum methodology of inventory management. In this paper, Soni &; Shah (2008) propose a non-fixed constant demand rate and with the inventory change. This paper tries to establish a pattern in the non-fixed constant demand and with the inventory change direction for research in time to solve the present value analysis unit view the best revenue model. With a different way of mathematical derivation, held to discuss a commodity broker is a loss characteristics dependent on the demand and inventory levels, the use of methods analyze the smallest unit of time to prove the existence of the cost function, and get the optimal order cycle time and order quantities. After the result against another in order to explore the impact profits also considering the purchase of goods produced will affect the sales rate of depletion and profitability, because paper stressed that the full optimization of the conditions for the needs of its profits as a function of mathematical models of architecture, under this hypothesis in net present value of total sales profit of cycle time = (current income of the cycle time - the total cost of the present value of the cycle time), use the analysis equation to verify the best profit model is true. Numerical analysis through profit function by the second differential proved less than zero, confirmed that the maximum profit is there.

In this thesis, the maximum entropy principle is used to analyze the N policy M/G/1 queueing system. We first derive the steady state solutions for the N policy M/G/1 queueing system by using the maximum entropy principle. Next, we use the derived results to obtain the mean waiting time in the queue. Finally, we present numerical comparisons between the established exact results and the corresponding approximate results to the ordinary M/M/1, M/E2/1, and M/H2/1 queueing systems and the N policy M/M/1, M/E2/1, and M/H2/1 queueing systems.

The advent of high-speed networking has introduced new applications such as video conference and voice over IP. These applications have stringent performance requirements in terms of throughputs, delay, delay jitter and loss rate. For corporations, they hope the bandwidth allocation can follows by some polices, e.g. business critical traffic can receive better quality of service then other traffic. Current the best-effort service model is not enough, because the performance of each session can degrade significantly when the network is overloaded, and it handle all traffic equally. When Internet gets more and more popular and powerful, users are less patient with the unpredictable quality of server of Internet. There is an urgent need to provide network services with performance guarantees and to support link sharing, which allows resource sharing among traffic that are grouped according to business-oriented polices, protocol, traffic type, administrative affiliation, and other criteria. In this work, we propose a hierarchical link sharing architecture and a new scheduling algorithm WF2Q-M. The link sharing architecture include a hierarchical links sharing service model and some good properties of resouce management, e.g. advance and periodic reservation, maximum rate control and a hierarchical Web interface for users. The packet scheduler WF2Q-M can simultaneously support maximum rate control and have good properties of WF2Q. By merging packet's eligible time into its virtual staring time and use WF2Q based algorithms, we can skip the packet regulator in the literatures' service model to support rate control. By changing the ratio of system real clock to virtual clock, WF2Q-M can be properly defined as variable-rate servers.

This thesis analyzes a single removable and unreliable server in the
-policy M/G/1 queueing system in which the server breaks down according to a Poisson process and the repair time obeys an arbitrary distribution. We assume that when the number of customers in the system reaches N, turn the server on with probability p and leave it off with probability (1 − p). The use of maximum entropy approach is to develop the approximate formulae for the probability distributions of the number of customers and the expected waiting time in the system. We perform the comparative analysis between approximate results and exact results with four different service time and repair time distributions, including exponential,uniform, gamma, and deterministic. It appears from numerical results that the maximum entropy approach is sufficiently accurate for practical use and based on the maximum entropy approach , we demonstrate that the < p,N >-policy M/G(G)/1 queueing system is sufficiently robust to the variations of service time distribution and repair time distribution functions.

The GM(1, 1) of grey system theory has been adopted in a variety of ranges, and it features forecasting through small amounts of data. This research predicts the New Southbound Policy's countries of tourists, length of stay, and tourism receipts by using GM(1, 1) and other four kinds modified GM(1, 1), which are modified 1-years-period GM(1, 1) model, modified 2-years-period GM(1, 1) model, modified 3-years-period GM(1, 1) and modified 4-years-period GM(1, 1) model. Meanwhile, forecasting the maximum capacity of three major regions tourists and tourism receipts by using Verhulst method. Among these five methods, the result of modified 1-years-period GM(1, 1) by starting in odd years is the best, and the mean error is 3.68%. The Verhulst method indicates that the maximum capacity of tourists and tourism receipts have reached the peak. The major finding of this study are summarized as follows: First, GM(1, 1) prediction is precise in forecasting tourists, length of stay, and tourism receipts. Second, forecasting through the modified 1-years-period GM(1, 1) by starting in odd years. All countries of tourists most have a growing trend. Above of then, New Zealand and Australia have the highest growth rate. Third, regarding the length of stay. Tour group of staying 8-15 days has the highest increase in the future. Fourth, the Verhulst method indicates that the maximum capacity of tourists has reached saturation from 2019 to 2020. Finally, the Verhulst model displays the maximum capacity of tourism receipts will be a supersaturated state and negative growth in 2019. Therefore, there is room for improvement in the government's New Southbound Policy. Hoping the results of this study will provide the tourism industry and relevant government department as references for planning the tourism policy and related strategy. Key Words : grey prediction, the New Southbound Policy, length of stay, tourism receipts, maximum capacity
