USE OF WAITING LINE MODEL IN CONSTRUCTION

International Journal of Advanced Technology in Civil Engineering, 2013
This 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 ...

A Waiting Line Model:

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 ...

Modeling and simulation of customer dissatisfaction in waiting lines and its effects

SIMULATION, 2016
A combination of discrete-event and agent-based simulation analysis using a field-tested psychological model for evaluating the effects of customer dissatisfaction in waiting lines beyond balking and reneging was developed. The proposed model assessed the effects that different psychological parameter values and business decisions in waiting lines ...

A Simulation Model of Congested Traffic in the Waiting Line

2005
Congested 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.

Serial production lines with waiting time limits: Bernoulli reliability model

IEEE Transactions on Engineering Management, 2018
Production systems with waiting time constraints are frequently encountered in semiconductor, automotive, battery, food, and many other manufacturing industries. Under the waiting time constraints, the residence time of in-process inventories is constrained by a predetermined time limit.

Improving Retail Manpower Planning with a Quasi-Subjective Waiting Line Model

Journal of the Academy of Marketing Science, 1980
One of the most fruitful approaches for increasing marketing productivity is through more efficient manpower planning. This is particularly true in the labor intensive sectors of marketing such as retailing, particularly the retail department store. Waiting line models offer a high degree of potential for more effective manpower planning in the retail ...

Modeling and Managing the Percentage of Satisfied Customers in Hidden and Revealed Waiting Line Systems

Production and Operations Management, 2006
We perform an analysis of various queueing systems with an emphasis on estimating a single performance metric. This metric is defined to be the percentage of customers whose actual waiting time was less than their individual waiting time threshold. We label this metric the Percentage of Satisfied Customers (PSC.) This threshold is a reflection of the ...

An analytic model for single-wavelength fiber delay line buffer with finite waiting places

SPIE Proceedings, 2007
In an asynchronous optical packet switching network, contention occurs at a node whenever two or more packets are trying to leave the node from the same output port on the same wavelength. As a means of contention resolution, fiber delay lines (FDLs) are commonly implemented in optical buffers.

Rapid Modeling of Express Line Systems for Improving Waiting Processes

2009
In time-based competition, one of the main management objectives in services is to decrease customers’ waiting. Accordingly, search for designs of queuing systems which reduce waiting has become a major concern of managers. A frequently used solution is the application of express lines.

A Queueing Model without Customer Waiting Applied in Flexible Production Line to Optimize the Number of Servers

2011 International Conference on Information Management, Innovation Management and Industrial Engineering, 2011
The queueing model of Poisson arrival process, general distribution service process and infinite servers can be applied in the stochastic service system how many servers do we need to ensure the customers scarcely have to wait in queue. According to the additivity of Poisson distribution, the queueing theory principle and nature of probability theory ...
