In an M/M/1 queueing system, the arrival rate is 5 customers per hour and the service rate is 7 customers per hour. If the service process is automated (resulting in no variation in service times but the same service rate), what will be the resulting performance measurements? (Round all answers to three decimals.) What is the utilization? What is the expected number of customers in the system (L)? What is the expected waiting time (in hours) for the system (W)?

At a fashion retailer, there are three cashiers providing checkout service simultaneously. On average, customers arrive at the checkout area every 6 minutes. It is estimated that the customer arrival process is a Poisson process. The average checkout time for each customer is 12 minutes, with its standard deviation equal to 15 minutes. Suppose that customers form a single line. What is the average waiting time in minutes for a customer? Note: 1. Keep 2 decimal places for your final answer. Either use Excel for your calculation, or keep at least 4 decimal places for your intermediate numbers. 2. The Poisson arrival process has exponentially distributed inter-arrival times.
The check-out area of a grocery store has the average customer interarrival time = 2 minutes, the average processing time of each cashier = 6 minutes, and in total 4 cashiers. The average waiting time for each customer is 8 minutes. What is the average number of customers in the system (including waiting and using the service)? a 3 b 7 c 6 d 4
The BPD has three tellers to provide service. Each teller, on average, serves one customer in three minutes per customer, the latter arriving 50 every hour. Due to complaints received, an evaluation of the system has been requested:(a) Give the average utilization of the service system with the three tellers.b) What is the probability of arriving at the bank with no one there?c) What is the average number of customers waiting in line?d) On average how long does a customer wait in line to be served?e) On average how many customers would be served at a teller and waiting in line?
Currently, Commercial Banks have 1 unit of ATM machines to meet customer needs. It is known that there is an average of 12+x customers in the system. Then it is also known that the average time spent by someone in the system is 10 minutes. Assume that the system follows M/M/1. The Commercial Bank operational manager is considering whether it is necessary to add 1 unit of ATM machine. What are your considerations? To strengthen the consideration, compare the queue length, queue length, and utilities before and after adding an ATM machine? Note: x denoted by the last number of my ID Number.Example, if my ID number is 2602296545, then the number used are “5”
An ice cream truck is parked at a local beach and customers queue up to buy icecreams at a rate of one per minute. The arrival pattern of people buying ice cream isessentially random. It takes 40 seconds on average to serve a customer ice cream, witha standard deviation of 20 seconds. Find the following expected measures of performance for this system: the expected time in the queue for ice cream, the expected totaltime to get an ice cream, and the expected number of customers waiting for ice cream.
Martin Weir is studying a waiting line for a 9 server system at Market Fresh Foods. The company wants to be sure that its customers enjoy a quality service experience. Martin has studied operations for the past 2 weeks and has determined that on average, a customer arrives every 0.0061 Minute(s) and the average service is completed in 0.0282 Minute(s). Answer the following:. Offered workload rate =
An airline is planning to open a satellite ticket desk in a new shopping plaza, staffed byone ticket agent. It is estimated that requests for tickets and information will average15 per hour, and requests will have a Poisson distribution. Service time is assumed to be exponentially distributed. Previous experience with similar satellite operations suggeststhat mean service time should average about three minutes per request. Determine each ofthe following:a. System utilizationb. Percentage of time the server (agent) will be idlec. The expected number of customers waiting to be servedd. The average time customers will spend in the systeme. The probability of zero customers in the system and the probability of four customersin the system
