A gasoline service station sees on average 27 arrivals of vehicles every one hour in the morning. The average service time is 100 seconds. If one particular bank employee leaves his house at 8:15AM and it is just 35 minute drive to a small single gas station and then a 45 minute drive to his office, what time in AM he is expected to arrive at the bank?

> Commercial trucks begin to arrive at a seaport entry plaza at 7:50 a.m., at the rate of λ(t) = 6.3 -0.25t veh/min, with t in minutes. The plaza opens at 8:00 a.m. For the first 10 minutes, one processing booth is open. After the first 10 minutes until the queue clears, two processing booths are open. Each booth processes trucks at a uniform rate of 2 per minute. What is the average delay per vehicle, the maximum queue length, and the average queue length?

SEAT WORK: EA4 Queving theory: D/D/1 Vehicles arrive at an entrance to a recreational park. There is a single gate (at which all vehicles must stop), where a park attendant distributes a free brochure. The park opens at 9:00 A.M., at which time vehicles begin to arrive at a rate of 470 veh/h. After 20 minutes, the arrival flow rate declines to 115 veh/h, and it continues at that level for the remainder of the day. If the time required to distribute the brochure is 14 seconds, and assuming D/D/1 queuing, describe the operational characteristics of the queue.

Vehicles arrive at the carpark of an airport. Vehicles have to queue at the single entrance gate of the carpark at 9:00 AM. The arrival rate is constant at 240 veh/hr. However, between 9:00 and 9:40 AM, the parking ticket machine at the entrance works slowly due to a malfunction, and consequently, each vehicle spends 30 seconds to take the parking ticket. After 9:40 AM, the problem is solved and vehicles spend only 10 seconds at the gate to take the ticket. In how many minutes does the queue dissipate? Select one: a. 60 b. 70 c. 75 d. 80

Through the Walla Walla Road to the entrance of the E-1 parking lot at the University of Washington, vehicles begin to arrive from 7:40 A.M. at a uniform deterministic rate of 480 vph until 8:20 A.M. and from then on at 120 vph. It takes 10 seconds for a vehicle to go through the paying process at the gate. If the parking lot is open at 8:00 A.M., determine (a) when the queue will dissipate, (b) the total delay, (c) the average delay, (d) the maximum queue length (in vehicles), and (e) the longest vehicle delay under FIFO. Show your results graphically. [Hint: D/D/1 analysis]

At which vehicles begin to arrive at a rate of 480 veh/h. After 20 minutes, the arrival flow rate declines to 120 veh/h and corrtinues at that level for the remainder of the day. If the time required to distribute the brochure is 15 seconds, and assuming D/D/1 queuing (a) draw the queuing diagram (b) describe the operational characteristics of the queue (maximum queue length, maximum queuing time, average queuing time per vehicle etc.)
3-The arrival rate at a parking lot is 6 veh/min. Vehicles start arriving at 6:00 P.M., and when the queue reaches 36 vehicles, service begins. If company policy is that total vehicle delay should be equal to 500 veh min, what is the departure rate? (Assume D/D/1 queuing and a constant service rate.)
