BANK SIMULATION (DES)

Last modified : July 31, 1997


Java Applet

We assume the following in the calculation below:

(1) Initially the number of tellers is 5 (You can change that.)
(1) Initially the number customers per hour is 20 (You can change that,too.)
(2) The arrival time of the customers is a uniform random variable with mean = arrival time of the preceeding customer plus 35 seconds.
(3) The time each customer spent with a teller is also a uniform random variable. Its mean is 60 seconds.
