Topics in Simulation of <strong>Stochastic</strong><br />

Processes<br />

1. Solve ̂σ/ √ k ≤ 20 which gives k = (110/20) 2 ≈ 31 replications.<br />

2–7. No answer provided.<br />

8. To obtain a rough-cut model we will (a) use a 0.5 probability that an item joins the<br />

queue of each inspector, rather than selecting the shortest queue, <strong>and</strong> (b) treat all<br />

processing times as exponentially distributed (later we will refine (b)).<br />
