Array pattern nulling by element position perturbations using a genetic algorithm

A genetic algorithm has been used for null steering in phased and adaptive arrays . It has been shown that it is possible to steer the array null s precisely to the required interference directions and to achieve any prescribed null depths . A comparison with the results obtained from the analytic solution shows the advantages of using the genetic algorithm for null steering in linear array patterns

On Queueinginventory Models – product form solution; reservation, Cancellation and common life time

Queueing theory is the mathematical study of ‘queue’ or ‘waiting lines’ where an item from inventory is provided to the customer on completion of service. A typical queueing system consists of a queue and a server. Customers arrive in the system from outside and join the queue in a certain way. The server picks up customers and serves them according to certain service discipline. Customers leave the system immediately after their service is completed. For queueing systems, queue length, waiting time and busy period are of primary interest to applications. The theory permits the derivation and calculation of several performance measures including the average waiting time in the queue or the system, mean queue length, traffic intensity, the expected number waiting or receiving service, mean busy period, distribution of queue length, and the probability of encountering the system in certain states, such as empty, full, having an available server or having to wait a certain time to be served.
