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

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...

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,...

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...
