A $$2~{\times }~2$$ random switching model and its dual risk model

In this article, a special case of two coupled M/G/1-queues is considered, where two servers are exposed to two types of jobs that are distributed among the servers via a random switch. In this model, the asymptotic behavior of the workload buffer exceedance probabilities for the two single servers/both servers together/one (unspecified) server is determined. Hereby, one has to distinguish between jobs that are either heavy-tailed or light-tailed. The results are derived via the dual risk model of the studied coupled M/G/1-queues for which the asymptotic behavior of different ruin probabilities is determined.

Numerical Ruin Probability in the Dual Risk Model with Risk-Free Investments

In this paper, a dual risk model under constant force of interest is considered. The ruin probability in this model is shown to satisfy an integro-differential equation, which can then be written as an integral equation. Using the collocation method, the ruin probability can be well approximated for any gain distributions. Examples involving exponential, uniform, Pareto and discrete gains are considered. Finally, the same numerical method is applied to the Laplace transform of the time of ruin.
