Vehicles begin to arrive at a parking lot at 6:00am at a rate of 8 per minute. Due to an

accident on the access highway, no vehicles arrive from 6:20 to 6:30am. From

6:30am on, vehicles arrive at the rate of two per minute. The parking lot attendant

processes incoming vehicles (collects parking fees) at the rate of four per minute

throughout the day. Assuming D/D/1 queuing, draw a queuing (arrival-departure)

diagram to present the events described and determine total vehicle delay.

Can you write more clearly? If it is not clear, some symbols I may not know.

Thank you!

3. Vehicles begin to arrive to a parking lot at 7:00 AM at a rate of 2000 veh/hour, but the demand reduces to 1000 veh/hour at 7:30 AM and continues at that rate. The ticketing booth to enter the parking lot can only serve the vehicles at 1000 veh/hour until 7:15 AM, after which the service rate increases to 2000 veh/hour. Assuming D/D/1 queuing, draw a queuing diagram for this situation. Find: a) the time at which the queue clears,...

Cars arrive at a parking lot at a rate of 20 per hour. Assume that a Poisson process model is appropriate. Answer the following questions. No derivations are needed but justification of your answers are necessary. What assumptions are necessary to model the arrival of cars as a Poisson process? What is the expected number of cars that arrive between 10:00 a.m and 11:45 a. m? Suppose you walk into the parking lot at 10:15 a.m.; how long, on average,...

At the end of a sporting event, vehicles begin leaving a parking lot at λ(t) = 12 − 0.25t and vehicles are processed at μ(t) = 2.5 + 0.5t [t is in minutes and λ(t) and μ(t) are in vehicles per minute]. Assuming D/D/1 queuing, determine the total vehicle delay, longest queue, and the wait time of the 50th vehicle to arrive assuming first-in-first-out and D/D/1 queuing. Answer:  total delay=1016.15 veh-min, Delay 50th veh=5.64 min, Max Q=60.167 veh

At a facility’s loading dock, delivery vehicles arrive randomly, starting at 8:00 AM, at a rate of 2.0 per hour. If the dock is occupied by another vehicle, the driver must park in a waiting area until the dock is clear; this occurs with probability 0.20, independent of the time of day or other variables. Identify the family and parameter(s) of each of the following random variables (for instance, “Bernoulli(0.5)”). If it is not one of our “famous” families indicate...

Vehicles arrive at a toll both starting at 7:00 A.M. at a rate of λ(t) = 5.1 – 0.05t [with λ(t) in veh/min and t in minutes after 7:00 A.M.]. The first operator processes cars at a rate of 3 veh/minute 7:00 A.M. until 7:15 A.M when the person leaves because of illness. From 7:15 A.M to 7:25 A.M, no one is at the toll booth but a new operator arrives at 7:25 A.M and processes at a rate of...

Vehicles arrive at a signalized intersection at a uniform rate of 900 veh/hr. The saturation flow rate for the intersection is 1200 veh/hr. However, a crash has reduced the saturation flow rate to only 300 veh/hr for a one-hour period. Assuming D/D/1 queuing, determine: a. How long will it take for the resulting queue to clear? (6 points) b. How much delay is experienced as compared to if the saturation flow rate had NOT been reduced? (6 points) c. What...

Between 4:00PM and 6:00PM the vehicles arrive to the entrance ramp of a regional toll road at a constant rate of 1740 vehicles per hour. The toll plaza at the entrance ramp has five toll booths, which combined can process up to 34 vehicles per minute. At 4:30PM one of the toll booths is disabled due to electronics malfunction, which reduces the vehicle processing capacity of the toll plaza to 27 vehicles per minute. At 5:00 PM the toll booth...
Suppose small aircraft arrive at a certain airport according to a Poisson process with rate α= 8 per hour
Suppose small aircraft arrive at a certain airport according to a Poisson process with rate α= 8 per hour, so that the number of arrivals during a time period of t hours is a Poisson rv with parameter λ = 8t. (a) What is the probability that exactly 6 small aircraft arrive during a 1-hour period? At least 6? At least 10? (b) What are the expected value and standard deviation of the number of small aircraft that arrive during...

Clients arrive at a law office with a single lawyer at a rate of 2.5 per hour. The lawyer takes an average of 10 minutes with each client. Assuming that arrivals are Poisson distributed and the legal service time is exponentially distributed, answer the following questions: a.) Compute that answers for this problem using the first six queuing equations. b.) Service goals for this law office dictate that an arriving client should not have to wait more than an average...
