Concept explainers

Optimization

Optimization comes from the same root as "optimal". "Optimal" means the highest. When you do the optimization process, that is when you are "making it best" to maximize everything and to achieve optimal results, a set of parameters is the base for the selection of the best element for a given system.

Integration

Integration means to sum the things. In mathematics, it is the branch of Calculus which is used to find the area under the curve. The operation subtraction is the inverse of addition, division is the inverse of multiplication. In the same way, integration and differentiation are inverse operators. Differential equations give a relation between a function and its derivative.

Application of Integration

In mathematics, the process of integration is used to compute complex area related problems. With the application of integration, solving area related problems, whether they are a curve, or a curve between lines, can be done easily.

Volume

In mathematics, we describe the term volume as a quantity that can express the total space that an object occupies at any point in time. Usually, volumes can only be calculated for 3-dimensional objects. By 3-dimensional or 3D objects, we mean objects that have length, breadth, and height (or depth).

Area

Area refers to the amount of space a figure encloses and the number of square units that cover a shape. It is two-dimensional and is measured in square units.

A computer system queues up batch jobs and processes them on an FCFS basis.Between 2 and 5 P.M., jobs arrive at an average rate of 30 per hour and require anaverage of 1.2 minutes of computer time.

The arrival of customers to a small local food restaurant may be modeled by a Poisson process with rate of 1 per 15 min period. Assume customer will only arrive if there is at least one customer present. Each customer on average stays for a time exponentially distributed with mean 20 minutes. This is modeled as a birth-death process. (i) Compute the probability that the capacity of 20 will be reached if we start with 5 customers.

The germination rate of seeds is defined as the proportion of seeds that, when properly planted and watered, sprout and grow. A certain variety of grass seed usually has a germination rate of 0.80, and a company wants to see if spraying the seeds with a chemical that is known to change germination rates in other species will change the germination rate of this grass species. (a) Suppose the company plans to spray a random sample of 400 seeds and conduct a two-sided test of 0: 0.8Hpusing = 0.05. They determine that the power of this test against the alternative 0.75pis 0.69. Interpret the power of this test.(b) Describe two ways the company can increase the power of the test. What is a disadvantage of each of these ways? (c) The company researchers spray 400 seeds with the chemical and 307 of the seeds germinate. This produces a 95% confidence interval for the proportion of seeds that germinate of (0.726, 0.809). Use this confidence interval to determine whether the test described in…
A small bank has two tellers, one for deposis and one for withdrawals. The service time for each teller is exponentially distributed, with a mean of 1 min. Customers arriving at the bank according to a poisson process, with mean rate 40 per hour; it is assumed that depositors and withdrawers constitute separate poisson processes, each with mean rate 20 per hour , and that no customer is both a depositor and a withdrawer. The bank is thinking of changing the current arrangement to allow each teller to handle both deposits and withdrawals. The bank would expect that each teller's mean service time would increase to 1.2 min, but it hopes that the new arrangement would prevent long lines in front of one teller while the other teller is idle, a situation that occurs from time to time under the current setup. Analyze the two arrangements with respect to the average idle time of teller and the expected number of customers in the bank at any given time.
In a flow system, the arrival rate to a particular station is 40 units per hour. The station has 4 identical machines each with a processing rate of 25 units per hour. The probability that a part arriving at the station will be delayed is:
A critical resource in a manufacturing operation experiences a very high traffic intensity during the shop’s busiest periods. During these periods the arrival rate is approximately 57 jobs per hour. Job processing times are approximately exponentially distributed with mean 1 minute.a. Compute the expected flow time in the system assuming an FCFS processing discipline, and the expected flow time under SPT using Figure 9–13.b. Compute the probability that a job waits more than 30 minutes for processing under FCFS.c. Using a normal approximation, estimate the probability that a job waits more than 30 minutes for processing under LCFS.
