Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Consider a queuing system with a Poisson arrival rate of 10 vehicles per hour and an exponential service rate of 15 vehicles per hour. Determine the average waiting time in the queue.

💡 Hint: Recall that Wq relies on traffic intensity.

Challenge 2 Hard

Analyze the impacts of transitioning from an M/M/1 queue model to an M/G/1 queue model, considering varied service times. What are the implications on system performance?

💡 Hint: Consider how fixed versus variable service times affect predictability.
