Consider a continuous-time stochastic process such as {Q(t), t ≥ 0}, where Q(t) is the number of customers in queue at time t. Suppose that we would like to estimate the steady-state time-average number in queue, Q (see App. 1B for one definition), using the method of batch means based on one simulation run of length m time units. Discuss two approaches for getting exactly m basic discrete observations Q₁, Q₂, …, Q_m for use in the method of batch means. The m Q_i’s will be batched to form n batch means.
