Admission decisions for loss systems accessed by multiple customer classes are a classical queueing control problem with a wide variety of applications. When a server is available, the decision is ...

ABSTRACT. The linear programming approach to approximate dynamic programming has received considerable attention in the recent network revenue management (RM) literature. A major challenge of the ...

When both variables are subject to error, a straight line may be fitted by minimizing the sum of squared distances of the observed points to the line. Approximate distributions of the slope of this ...

For linear rank tests in the two-sample case the concept of approximate Bahadur efficiency (BE) is developed, and as the main result of this paper the equality of the approximate and exact local BE is ...
