Question 2

Discrete variables are often called state variables.

Accepted Answer

Discrete variables are not typically referred to as state variables; state variables are used in systems to describe the state of a system, which can be continuous or discrete.

Question 4

In SimQuick,buffers are the places where the objects enter the process.

Accepted Answer

Buffers in SimQuick are used to hold or store objects temporarily as they move through the process, not where they enter the process.

Question 10

Use the data given below to answer the following question(s).
Customers arrive at an airline ticket counter at the rate of three customers per minute and can be served at the rate of 4 customers per minute.
-Explain Little's law used in queuing systems.

Accepted Answer

The answer of Use the data given below to answer...

Question 11

Use the data below to answer the following question(s). Given: λ = customer arrival rate; μ = customer service rate; L = number of customers in the system; LS1U1B1qS1U1B0 = number of customers in the queue. -The formula to calculate L_q in an FCFS system,L_q = ,is not valid if μ < λ.

Accepted Answer

The formula to calculate L_q assumes that μ > λ, which is the condition for stability in a system. If μ < λ, the system is unstable and the formula is not valid. Therefore, the statement is true.

Use the data below to answer the following question(s).
Given: λ = customer arrival rate; μ = customer service rate; L = number of customers in the system; LS1U1B1qS1U1B0 = number of customers in the queue.
-In an FCFS system,L =  only if μ = λ.

Accepted Answer

The answer of Use the data below to answer the...

Question 17

The lines and waiting times for a service initially grow longer,but level off eventually.This is called the transient period.

Accepted Answer

This is because during the transient period, the system is adjusting to changes or disturbances in demand, causing an initial increase in lines and waiting times. However, as the system reaches a new equilibrium, the lines and waiting times will eventually level off.
