**LOOKING FOR FORMULAS, ANSWERS PROVIDED. Problem-1: At a single-phase, multiple-channel service facility, customers arrive randomly. Statistical analysis of past data shows that the interarrival time has a mean of 20 minutes and a standard deviation of 4 minutes. The service time per customer has a mean of 15 minutes and a standard deviation of 5 minutes. The waiting cost is $200 per customer per hour. The server cost is $25 per server per hour. Assume general probability distribution and no...

For questions 1-3 Customers arrive at the Cox Store at an average of one every 15 minutes and their requests take on average 10 minutes to be processed. The service counter is staffed by only one Cox representative, Mark, who works from 9AM to 5PM every day. Assume Poisson arrivals and exponential service times. 1. What are the arrival and service rates that should be used for this problem? A. λ = 4 customers/hour μ = 6 customers/hour B. λ =...

Consider a simple queuing system in which customers arrive randomly such that the time between successive arrivals is exponentially distributed with a rate parameter l = 2.8 per minute. The service time, that is the time it takes to serve each customer is also Exponentially distributed with a rate parameter m = 3 per minute. Create a Matlab simulation to model the above queuing system by randomly sampling time between arrivals and service times from the Exponential Distribution. If a...

A. Issues [1] In addition to damages for one year's notice period, can a trial judge award significant damages for the mere fact of an employee's dismissal, or for the stigma that that dismissal brings? Or for the employer thereafter competing with the ex-employee for the clients, before the ex-employee has got a new job? B. Basic Facts [2] This is an appeal from 2009 ABQB 591 (CanLII), 473 A.R. 254. [3] Usually a judgment recites facts before law. But...
