Completed Minor Research Projects : 

1. Ms. Bindu Abraham completed the Minor Research Project titled “Extreme Value Theory for Queues with Applications in Statistical Quality Control and Time Series Modelling” (2005) funded by UGC.

Project Summary : 

In many queuing applications, a performance characteristic of great importance and interest is the traffic intensity parameter , the ratio of mean arrival rate to mean service rate. In this project a presentation of methods to detect changes in the traffic intensity in M/Ek/1 queue making use of embedded Markov chain analysis and through CUSUM procedure. Methods to detect the magnitude of shift in traffic intensity parameter are discussed. The ARL function is provided. A numerical illustration for the M/M/1 case with the values of the V-mask and ARL are provided. The areas of extreme value theory for queues and time series modeling to statistical quality control problems for designing the optimal analysis of queues is reviewed also in this project.

2. . Bindu Abraham is the Principal Investigator of the Minor Research Project titled “Impact of climate change on epidemics- Analysis by using Gumbel count model” (2013) funded by UGC.
