SIMULATION AND MODELLING : ASSIGNMENT ONE

(1)Consider the following continuously operating job shop.Inter
arrival times of jobs are distributed as follows.

TIME BETWEEN ARRIVALS PROBABILITY

0 0.23
1 0.37
2 0.28
3 0.12

Processing time for jobs are normally distributed with mean 50

minutes and standard deviation 8 minutes.Construct a simulation
table and perform simulation for 10 new customers.Assume that
when simulation begins,there is one job being processed(scheduled
to be completed in 25 minutes) and there is one job with a 50 minute
processing time in the queue.
(a)What is the average time in the queue for the 10 new jobs?
(c)What is the maximum time in the system for the 10 new jobs?
TOTAL[5MKS]
(2)The randonm variables and are distributed as follows

Simulate 50 values of the random variable .Prepare a histogram of

the resulting values ,using class intervals of width equal to 3.
TOTAL[5MKS]

The rand() function in EXCEL is used to generate a random number for each of the
normal distributions as:
=NORM.INV(RAND(),100,10)
=NORM.INV(RAND(),300,15)
=NORM.INV(RAND(),40,8)
