Recall the harbor model of Prob. 2.19.

(a) Consider using AV for the model as stated originally. Specifically, which input random variates should be generated antithetically, and how could proper synchronization be maintained?


(b) Suppose that thought is being given to replacing the two existing cranes with two faster ones. Specifically, single-crane unloading times for a ship would be distributed uniformly between 0.2 and 1.0 day; everything else remains the same. Discuss proper application and implementation of CRN to compare the original system with the proposed new one.


(c) Carry out the comparative simulations, using both independent sampling and CRN, and replicate as needed to estimate the variance reduction (if any) achieved by CRN.
