9. CAPACITY AND DEMAND | 47 17. Using StatFit in ExtendSim, find the probability distributions of the interarrival and BPH Queuing Simulation data set #2. In the process depicted earlier, activities B times and processing times at steps A, B, C, D, E, F, and G in the supplemental C, D, and E are performed in parallel. Simulate the process for 10,000 minutes using random number seeds 1899 and 9250. Where is the bottleneck? What is the average time in the system? Notes: Click on the Help tab in ExtendSim to get the step-by-step instructions on how to use StatFit. You will need the Random Number block from the Value library Tahapogr to launch StatFit. To simulate a parallel sub-process, place the Unbatch block (to split jobs) from the Item library right after Activity A, and place the Batch block (to integrate the split outputs) right before Activity F. You may use workstation blocks (which include both a queue and an activity) rather than separate queue and activity blocks to unclutter the simulation model. A E Bonus assignment This is an optional assignment for bonus points. It is an individual assignment. Page 413 #17. Instead of using StatFit, use the following distributions (all times are in min): Arrivals: Uniform, continuous [4.4, 5.4] A: Normal (2.9, 0.5) B: Uniform continuous [2.45, 5.45] C: Normal (1.95, 0.5) D: Uniform continuous [5.43, 7.43] E: Normal (1.45, 0.2) F: Constant: 5 G: Normal (2.95, 0.5) 9.
