EVALUATION OF PERFORMANCE MEASURES OF A BULK ARRIVAL PRIORITY QUEUEING MULTI-SERVER MODEL USING α-CUT METHOD
Abstract
In this study, the parametric programming problem approach has been used to determine the membership function of the system performance measure with bulk arrivalpriority queue. Based on Zadeh's extension principle, this model can be used to transform a family of bulk arrival crisp priority queues from a bulk arrival priority fuzzy queue. Using an α-cut strategy with trapezoidal and triangular fuzzy numbers, a parametric programming problem has been applied to solve the fuzzy bulk arrival priority queue using the FMb/FM/S model. The model is verified by working through a numerical example.
