placing minimal cost on waiting time). Teaching Suggestion 14.3: Use of Poisson and Exponential Probability Distributions to Describe Arrival and Service Rates. These two distributions are very common in basic models‚ but students should not take their appropriateness for granted. As a project‚ ask students to visit a bank or drive-through restaurant and time arrivals to see if they indeed are Poisson distributed. Note that other distributions (such as exponential‚ normal‚ or Erlang) are often more

Operations Management Notes & Study Guide Chapter 1 (MSWD) When people wait‚ there is a mismatch between supply and demand‚ with respect either to their timing or their quantities. By better matching supply w demand‚ a firm gains a significant competitive advantage over its rivals. Demand can vary (in either predictable or unpredictable ways) and supply is inflexible.

We decided that the best route given to user with priority of least transits‚ followed by shortest distance between departure and arrival city. This will reduce the time spend on transit between city. We believed that this is the primary concern of the passengers. However‚ if the user still wants to have another route with shortest distance between departure and arrival city regardless of increase number of transit city‚ the

Operations Management Case study: A Business Trip to Brussels Summary The case study talks about the journey of a passenger by flight to Brussels and how his departure from the airport was much better than his arrival. The man also speaks about the various processes he had gone through at the Brussels airport. He gave us a view on how various complexities arise due to unfortunate weather conditions. The severe weather affected some micro operations which in turn cause problems in other micro
