Consider an M / M / 1 queueing system with capacity N = 1, arrival rate λ = 0.2 customers per minute, and service rate µ =0.3 customers per minute. Let X(t) be the number of customers present at time t.

a) Suppose that X(0) =0. Calculate P{X(1) = 0} and P{X(10) = 0}

b) Suppose that X(0) =1. Calculate P{X(1) = 0} and P{X(10) = 0}

c) Could you have predicted the difference between the answers in part a, and part b by the general theory of limiting probabilities?

Consider a single server queueing system. Arrivals take place every four minutes (first arrival takes place at t=0). Service times are random and take the value of 1 with probability 1/2 and 5 with probability ½. Assume that the following service time sequence is generated: S1=5, S2=5, S3=5, S4=1, S5=5. Simulate for T=20 minutes and estimate the average number of customers in the system and the average waiting time of a customer.

A kanban system has a rate of delivery, which equals the rate of arrival to the system, of 60 batches in a 10-hr day. Each batch contains 8 parts, and the processing time of a batch is exactly 8 minutes. The time between arrivals is known to have the exponential distribution. Compute the proportion of time the system is busy (?), the lead time, and the WIP (in terms of batches).

Consider the m by n grid graph: n vertices in each of m rows, and m vertices in each of n columns arranged as a grid, and edges between neighboring vertices on rows and columns (excluding the wrap-around edges in the toric mesh). There are m n vertices in total. a)What is the diameter of this graph? b) From the top left vertex to the bottom right vertex, how many shortest paths are there? Please explain.

Customers arrive at a two-server system at a Poisson rate λ=5. An arrival finding the system empty is equally likely to enter service with either server. An arrival finding one customer in the system will enter service with the idle server. An arrival finding two others will wait in line for the first free server. The capacity of the system is 3. All service times are exponential with rate µ=3, and once a customer is served by either server, he...

A communication system consists of n antennas of which m are defective and n − m are functional. Suppose the n antennas are indistinguishable and are lined up in a linear array. The system is called functional as long as no two consecutive antennas are defective. Suppose we randomly line up the n antennas. What is the probability that the resulting system will be functional?
