equal to 500 veh min, what is the departure rate? (Assume D/D/1 queuing and a constant service rate.)
The arrival rate at a parking lot is 6 veh/min. Vehicles start arriving at 6:00 P.M., and when the queue reaches 36 vehicles, service begins. The company policy states that the total vehicle delay should be equal to 500 veh-min. Assuming D/D/1 queuing and a constant service rate, determine the maximum queue length.

- 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, b) the total delay, c) the longest queue length, and d) wait time of the 500th and 2000th vehicles to arrive to the parking lot (assuming FIFO conditions)?arrow_forwardQUESTION 1 3 booths, each of which can handle one vehicle every 6 second. a.

- A ramp meter operates during the morning peak period. Ramp meter cycles vary with time as shown in the table. The metering scheme allows one vehicle to pass the signal. The table below gives the number of vehicles demanding service on the ramp during the particular time intervals, the cumulative demand for the ramp for the morning peak, the ram meter cycle for each interval.
