A five station transfer line is being considered. All failures are expected to occur at workstations and be operation dependent. Average repair time will be 5 cycles for each station. Average failure rates are estimated to be 0.01, 0.02, 0.02, 0.03, and 0.02, respectively. a) Compute the effectiveness of the line if no buffers are used b) Suppose one buffer of size 10 is to be added. Where should it be placed? c) Compute the effectiveness of the line with the buffer included A five station transfer line is being considered.
