For the scenario indicated on the Queuing Problem tab, answer the following under the assumption that the facility is staffed with a single (one) server:
What is the average server utilization?
What is the average number of customers waiting in line?
What is the average number of customers in the system? (Waiting in line + being served)
What is the average time (in minutes) spent waiting in line?
What is the average time (in minutes) spent in the system (Waiting in line + being served)
Queuing Problem: Customers arrive to a service facility on average 27 minutes apart (exponentially distributed time between arrivals) The average service time is 25 minutes per customer (exponentially distributed service times) Single Server Waiting Line Model (M/M/1) Exponential time between arrivals, exponential service times Arrival rate Average time between arrivals Service rate Average service time 2 = 1/2 = u= 1/u = 10 0.1000 12 0.0833 Average number of arrivals per period Average number of periods between arrivals Average number of customers served per period, when the server is busy Average service time (number of periods) per customer System Utilization Probability system is empty Average number of customers in queue Average number of customers in system Average time in queue per customer Average time in system per customer p= Po = Lg Ls = W, = W, = 0.8333 0.1667 4.1667 5.0000 0.4167 0.5000 BP( 4 units in system) PlStep by Step Solution
