SECTION B: APPLICATION OF PROBABILITY CONCEPTS AND PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTIONS IN MANUFACTURING OR SERVICE ORGANISATION

2. Investigate one (1) manufacturing organisation OR (1) service organisation (using web-search engine), where probability concepts or probability distributions discussed in the probability concepts and application have been applied around the globe. Note: you are expected to download an article using the google search engine and not Wikipedia documents, carefully read the article and thereafter summarize in your own words some specific sections of this article to answer the questions below. Your investigation should clearly indicate the following:

2.1) When the probability concept or probability distribution was adopted in the organisation. (4) 2.2) The operational problem(s) that prompted the need for the application of probability concept or

probability distribution in the organisation. (6) 2.3) A brief description of the solution procedure of the probability concept or probability distribution used in

the article, with a view to solve the operational problem(s) identified in the organisation. (i.e. the methodology)

(12)

2.4) The summary and importance of the probability concepts or probability distribution results obtained to solve the operational problem(s) identified in the organisation. (18)
