This paper proposes two models of adding relations to a linking pin type organization structure where every pair of siblings in a complete K-ary tree of height H is adjacent: (i) a model of adding an edge between two nodes with the same depth N and (ii) a model of adding edges between every pair of nodes with the same depth N. For each of the two models, an optimal depth N* is obtained by maximizing the total shortening path length which is the sum of shortening lengths of shortest paths between every pair of all nodes.

This paper proposes a new discrete-time queue analytical model based on BLUE algorithm in order to determine the network congestion in preliminary stages. We compare the original BLUE, which has been implemented in Java, with our proposed analytical model with regards to different performance measures (average queue length, throughput, average queueing delay and packet loss probability). The comparison results show that the proposed discrete-time queue analytical model outperforms BLUE algorithm in terms of throughput and packet loss probability. Moreover, the proposed model maintains the throughput performance regardless whether the amount of the traffic load is light or heavy. Furthermore, we calculate the packet dropping probability function for our analytical model and the BLUE algorithm in order to decide which algorithm drops fewer packets. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
This paper presents an experimental study for evaluting the decision support value if queueing network (QN) based simulation models for information system design performance. For illustration, queueing network simulation models have been extracted corresponding to three annotated design alternatives of a selected case study. The design alternatives are produced using logical requirements of the selected system. The performance of each alternative is then predicted using quantifiable parameters considering the dynamics of the system such as service time, waiting time and number of entities waiting in the system. In particular, results have shown that the first alternative performs better than the other two in terms of the selected parameters. In general, the case study revealed that QN-based simulation models alternatives in terms of selected parameters and under given assumptions. This is also means that the use of simulation may lead ti better designed information systems. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
