Question

A processor in a parallel processing computer can work on up to four tasks at once. When the processor is working on one or more tasks, the task completion rate is three tasks per millisecond. When there are three or fewer tasks assigned to the processor, tasks are assigned at the rate of two tasks per millisecond. The processor is unreliable in the sense that at any time the processor is working, it may reboot and discard all of its tasks. In any state i ≠ 0 (e.g. unless the processor is idle), reboots occur at a rate of 0.01 per millisecond. Sketch the continuous-time Markov chain and find the stationary probabilities.

Step 1

01 - From state 1 to 0: 3.1 (task completion rate) - From state 1 to 2: 2 (task assignment rate) - From state 2 to 1: 3 (task completion rate) - From state 2 to 3: 2 (task assignment rate) - From state 3 to 2: 3 (task completion rate) - From state 3 to Show more…
