Jobs arrive at Loaf Machine Shop. Assume the arrival rate is five jobs per hour. Service times (in minutes per job) do not follow the exponential probability distribution. Two proposed designs for Loaf Machine Shop operation are shown. Design Mean Standard Deviation A 6.0 3.0 B 6.25 0.6 What is the service rate in jobs per hour for each design? For the service rate in part (a), what design appears to provide the best or fastest service rate?

During the recent pandemic, the seaport in Savannah Georgia, the third busiest in the United States, averaged loading or unloading 6.7 cargo ships per week. The average time to unload a ship is 1.90 days. Multiple cranes to load and unload the ship operate five days a week. Do not round intermediate calculations. How many ships are waiting to be unloaded on average using Little's Law? Round your answer up to the nearest whole number.   ___ ship(s) During the pandemic, at times, demand doubled, how many ships are waiting to be unloaded on average using Little's Law? Round your answer up to the nearest whole number.   ___ ship(s) If demand remains at 6.7 cargo ships per week and through better scheduling, training, and crane operations, the average time to unload a ship lowers to 1.10 days, how many ships are waiting? Round your answer up to the nearest whole number.   ___ ship(s)

130) please please help me with this! Owners of a local restaurant are concerned about their ability to provide quality service as they continue to grow and attract more customers. They have collected data from Friday and Saturday nights, their busiest times of the week. During these time periods, about 106 customers arrive per hour for service. Given the number of tables and chairs, and the typical time it takes to serve a customer, the owners estimate they can serve, on average, about 162 customers per hour. Use Exhibit 4.6. Furthermore, the owners anticipate that in one year their demand will double as long as they can provide good service to their customers. a. Currently, during these nights, are they in the zone of service, the critical zone, or the zone of nonservice? EXIBIT IS THE PICTURE ADDED O Critical zone O Zone of service O Zone of nonservice b. Next year, after demand doubles, what must the service capacity increase to (at minimum) to stay out of the critical zone?Note:…

A car mechanic, Carlos, can install new mufflers at an average rate of 3 every hour (following an exponential distribution). Customers needing this service arrive at the shop (following a Poisson distribution) on an average of 2 per hour. They are served on a first-in, first-out basis and come from the very large (almost infinite) population of possible buyers. Calculate the following operating characteristics of the service system: a. The probability there are no cars in the system. b. The average number of cars waiting in line. c. The average number of cars in the system. d. The average time a car spends waiting in line. e. The average time a car spends in the system.

Virginia's Ron McPherson Electronics Corporation retains a service crew to repair machine breakdowns that occur on an average of λ = 4 per 8-hour workday (approximately Poisson in nature). The crew can service an average of μ = 6 machines per workday, with a repair time distribution that resembles the negative exponential distribution. a) The utilization rate of this service system (round your response to two decimal places)
