Homework answers / question archive / Jobs arrive randomly at a particular assembly plant; assume that the arrival rate is five jobs per hour
Jobs arrive randomly at a particular assembly plant; assume that the arrival rate is five jobs per hour. Service times (in minutes per job) do not follow the exponential probability distribution. Two proposed designs for the plant's assembly operation are shown.
| A | 6.0 | 3.0 |
| B | 6.25 | 0.6 |
a. What is the service rate in jobs per hour for each design?
Minutes Per Hour = 60 min
Mean for Design A = 6
Service Rate for Design A = 60/6
Service Rate for Design A = 10 jobs per hour
Mean for Design B = 6.25
Service Rate for Design B = 60/6.25
Service Rate for Design B = 9.6 jobs per hour
