Waiting line model applications in manufacturing
International Journal of Production Economics, 1998Improving manufacturing and attaining manufacturing excellence to gain competitive advantage has attracted a lot of attention in the last few years. Many manufacturing operations and many of the technological advances in manufacturing systems like FMS, AGVs, GT, CIM, cellular manufacturing, AS/RS and JIT production systems admit modelling via waiting ...

Economic Models for Industrial Waiting Line Problems
Management Science, 1963Studies of industrial waiting line problems typically involve determining the proper balance between the amount of service and the amount of waiting for that service. This paper presents some basic results for the case where the study is to be based upon fundamental cost considerations and the assumption of an infinite calling population. Included are

Waiting line or queuing systems are pervasive. Many of us remember the long lineups in front of stores in the Soviet Union and Vietnam, and we have all experienced lineups in banks and supermarkets, but there are many more instances with waiting lines: think, for instance, about traffic lights, where drivers line up and wait, files that wait for ...

STAFFING SERVICE ACTIVITIES WITH WAITING LINE MODELS
Decision Sciences, 1971ABSTRACTThe problem of scheduling service activities and variable tasks has traditionally been solved subjectively. The lack of objective approaches has been due to the absence of formal standards and delay costs and by the high cost of examination and measurement. Some recent developments in work measurement concepts may permit the development of more

USE OF WAITING LINE MODEL IN CONSTRUCTION
International Journal of Advanced Technology in Civil Engineering, 2013This paper represents the improvement in operational productivity of Excavation by using Griffi’s Waiting Line Model which is one of the mathematical tool to improve the planning process in construction industry. The objective of this paper is to do sizing and matching based on zero idle time for both prime mover as well as associated unit to obtain ...

Strategic Decision Making Using Waiting Line Models
International Journal of Strategic Decision Sciences, 2019This article considers issues facing management and their decision processes to deal with them effectively. The first develops an optimal strategy for leasing equipment in which there are three available management options, the criterion being to minimize the total cost of use. The first option is to stay with the status quo, the second to lease faster

A Simulation Model of Congested Traffic in the Waiting Line
2005Congested traffic shows very complicated and stochastic features. One of the most interesting features is the amplification/decay of perturbations, indicating the development of small speed oscillation in the downstream into the large speed oscillation in the upstream.

Journal of College & University Foodservice, 1992
A model using wailing the principles was developed to assist with foodservice facilities design. The number of seals needed is calculated. Using values for area per seat previously published the size of the dining area can then be determined. The number of seats needed is dependent upon the meal patterns served, arrival rates of customers, turnover ...
