ittlefield Simulation #1: Capacity Management Team: Computronic When the simulation began‚ we quickly determined that there were three primary inputs to focus on: the forecast demand curve (job arrivals‚) machine utilization‚ and queue size prior to each station. Specifically we were looking for upward trends in job arrivals and queue sizes along with utilizations consistently hitting 100%. Upon initial analysis of the first fifty days of operations‚ the team noticed that Station 1 had reached

Read the "JET Copies" Case Problem on pages 678-679 of the text. Using simulation estimate the loss of revenue due to copier breakdown for one year‚ as follows: In Excel‚ use a suitable method for generating the number of days needed to repair the copier‚ when it is out of service‚ according to the discrete distribution shown. In Excel‚ use a suitable method for simulating the interval between successive breakdowns‚ according to the continuous distribution shown. In Excel‚ use a

This report provides an in-depth analysis of the two Everest Simulations conducted by Group 10 of MGMT1001 Thursday Tutorial. This task required students to form teams consisting of five to six members whose goals were to summit Mount Everest. While it provided us with a rich experience in team dynamics and collaboration‚ it also enabled us to explore key managerial concepts taught in the course‚ consisting of: • Communication • Groups and Teams • Leadership In this report‚ we examine the effectiveness

Two Rainfall-Runoff Models were earlier identified for application and for the generation of a more reliable discharge data. These are the Thornwaite Water Balance Model (WBM) and the IHACRES. The input requirement of both models differ. For the WBM‚ generation of runoff requires seven input parameters. These are the Runoff Factor (RF)‚ Direct Runoff factor (DRF)‚ Soil Moisture Storage Capacity (SMSC)‚ Latitude of location‚ Rain Temperature Threshold‚ Snow Temperature Threshold and Maximum Snow Melt
