Abstract

ly this simulation model is just a M/M/s queue.] This bank simulation program consists of a teller resource and two process specification procedures. These procedures provide a script or template for created processes. The Generator process (the single process created from the Generator process specification procedure) is used to create Poisson arrivals of Customer processes. The Customer process specification procedure encodes a script for a typical customer. A customer requests a teller. If one is not available, the customer waits in the teller queue. Once the customer has a teller, he is served for an exponentially distributed amount of time. Finally, the customer relinquishes the teller and leaves the bank. [Note, Wirth's InOut I/O module is somewhat weak and inconvenient, so we wrote our own (PascalIO) whose flavor is closer to I/O in Pascal. The letter after the word WRITE is the first letter of the data type being written.] After the program listing, output results generated fro...
