Discuss the following:
Q: Customers walking into a bank are placed in a queue based on an arrival time distribution. Each customer has:
1. Customer number
2. Arrival time
3. Waiting time
4. Transaction time
The transaction time is based on what a customer decides to do, which can be one of the following:
1. Open a Certificate of Deposit (15 min)
2. Open a checking account (20 min)
3. Open a savings account (25 min)
4. Close checking account (15 min)
5. Closing savings account (17 min)
- The Server removes a customer from the queue then generates a random number between 1 and 5 to simulate a transaction type i.e. Open a checking account etc.
- The Server then sleeps for the duration of the transaction and then writes the customer information to a file.
- Waiting time is the difference between the arrival time and simulation time
