Problem 11-17 (Algorithmic) The new Fore and Aft Marina is to be located on the Ohio River near Madison, Indiana. Assume that Fore and Aft decides to build a docking facility where one boat at a time can stop for gas and servicing. Assume that arrivals follow a Poisson probability distribution, with an arrival rate of 6 boats per hour, and that service times follow an exponential probability distribution, with a service rate of 8 boats per hour. The manager...

Gubser Welding, Inc., operates a welding service for construction and automotive repair jobs. Assume that the arrival of jobs at the company's office can be described by a Poisson probability distribution with an arrival rate of two jobs per 8-hour day. The time required to complete the jobs follows a normal probability distribution, with a mean time of 3.2 hours and a standard deviation of 2 hours. Answer the following questions, assuming that Gubser uses one welder to complete all...

Problem 15-27 (Algorithmic) Gubser Welding, Inc., operates a welding service for construction and automotive repair jobs. Assume that the arrival of jobs at the company's office can be described by a Poisson probability distribution with an arrival rate of four jobs per 8-hour day. The time required to complete the jobs follows a normal probability distribution, with a mean time of 1.4 hours and a standard deviation of 1 hour. Answer the following questions, assuming that Gubser uses one welder...

roblem Consider a single server queueing system where the customers arrive according to a Poisson process with a mean rate of 18 per hour, and the service time follows an exponential distribution with a mean of 3 minutes. (1). What is the probability that there are more than 3 customers in the system? (2). Compute L, Lq and L, (3). Compute W, W and W (4). Suppose that the mean arrival rate is 21 instead of 18, what is the...

A store has a car wash facility for cleaning service. The arrival rate of cars is 15 per hour. The average service time is 3 minutes. Assume that the cars arrive in a poisson process and the service time distribution is exponential. There is only one facility providing service, and the parking space is only enough for two cars. If there is no car, the arrival car will enter this store. If there is one car in the parking space,...

The purpose of this assignment is to apply a waiting line model to a business service operation in order to recommend the most efficient use of time and resources.(This assignment has been adapted from Case Problem 2 in Chapter 15 of the textbook.)Use the information in the scenario provided to prepare a managerial report for Office Equipment, Inc. (OEI). Scenario Office Equipment, Inc. (OEI) leases automatic mailing machines to business customers in Fort Wayne, Indiana. The company built its success...

Office Equipment, Inc. (OEI) leases automatic mailing machines to business customers in Fort Wayne, Indiana. The company built its success on a reputation of providing timely maintenance and repair service. Each OEI service contract states that a service technician will arrive at a customer’s business site within an average of three hours from the time that the customer notifies OEI of an equipment problem. Currently, OEI has 10 customers with service contracts. One service technician is responsible for handling all...

During tax season the IRS hires seasonal workers to help answer the questions of taxpayers who call a special toll-free number for information. Suppose that calls to this line occur at an average rate of 60 calls per hour and follow a Poisson distribution. An IRS worker can handle an average of 5 calls per hour with service times, exponentially distributes. Assume that there are 10 IRS workers and when they are all busy, the phone system can keep 5...
