An architecture of geographically distributed ticket servers has been proposed to issue importance tickets to identify the priority that a flow should be given in the current dynamic network context. Here the potential viability of such an architecture is studied with respect to the performance requirements of ticket servers, network overhead that would be added, and the severity of longer connection setup times. A hybrid simulation approach is used. Network and ticket server performance are modeled using prototype results combined with analytical techniques for networks of queues. Two scenarios are studied\u2014a hurricane event and an office building bombing event\u2014and ticket server performance requirements and connection setup delays were not found to be prohibitive to the successful implementation of such an architecture.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/0037549704043891","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2004,9,13]],"date-time":"2004-09-13T20:00:29Z","timestamp":1095105629000},"page":"289-299","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Prioritization of Emergency Network Traffic Using Ticket Servers: A                 Performance Analysis"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"80","author":[{"given":"Cory C.","family":"Beard","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Computer Science\/Electrical Engineering, University of Missouri-Kansas                         City, 5100 Rockhill Road, Kansas City, MO 64110,"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Victor S.","family":"Frost","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, University of Kansas,                         Lawrence, KS 66045"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2004,6,1]]},"reference":[{"issue":"17","key":"atypb1","author":"Brewin, B.","year":"2001","journal-title":"Computerworld"},{"issue":"24","key":"atypb2","author":"Noam, E.","year":"2001","journal-title":"The New York Times"},{"key":"atypb3","volume-title":"Internet report: An examination of the NS\/EP implications of Internet technologies","author":"The President\u2019s National Security Telecommunications Advisory Committee, Network Group","year":"1999"},{"key":"atypb4","volume-title":"Fiscal year 2000 annual report: Exploring solutions for communications reliability","author":"National Communications System","year":"2000"},{"key":"atypb5","volume-title":"27th Joint Meeting of the U.S.\/Japanese Panel on Wind and Seismic Effects","author":"Federal Emergency Management Agency"},{"issue":"23","key":"atypb6","author":"Wilson, C.","year":"1989","journal-title":"Telephony"},{"issue":"12","key":"atypb7","author":"Griswold, J.
