Chapter 5, Problem 20P

Vehicles begin arriving at a single toll-road booth at 8:00am at a time-dependent deterministic rate of λ ( t ) = 2 + 0.1 t [with λ ( t ) in veh/min and t in minutes]. At 8:07 A.M. the toll booth opens and vehicles are serviced at a constant deterministic rate of 6 veh/min. Assuming D/D/1 queuing, what is the average delay per vehicle from 8:00 A.M. until the initial queue clears and what is the delay of the 20th vehicle to arrive?

At 8:00 A.M. there are 10 vehicles in a queue at a toll booth and vehicles are arriving at a rate of (t) = 6.9 − 0.2t. Beginning at 8 A.M., vehicles are being serviced at a rate of (t) = 2.1 + 0.3t ((t) and (t) are in vehicles per minute and t is in minutes after 8:00 A.M.). Assuming D/D/1 queuing, what is the maximum queue length, and what would the total delay be from 8:00 A.M. until the queue clears? (Also Draw the D/D1)
At exactly 8:05AM, vehicles start to enter a single toll gate at rate of 7veh/min following deterministic distribution. Due to teller being late, the toll booth opened at 8:20AM having a service rate of 8.5veh/min. Determine the time of queue dissipation, total vehicles at queue dissipation, longest vehicle delay, longest vehicle queue, total vehicle delay, and average delay per vehicle.
There is a single gate at an entrance to a recreational park where arriving vehicles must stop to pay their tickets. The park opens at 8:00AM, at which time vehicles begin to arrive at a rate of 480 veh/hr. After 20 minutes the arrival flow rate declines to 120 veh/hr, and it continues at that level for the remainder of the day. If the service time is 15 seconds per vehicle, and assuming D/D/1 queuing, determine the Length of Queue at 8:1OAM. Note: Round off your answers to the nearest whole number. Only include the numeric value of your answer without the unit (i.e. 22).
