Question:
=12-13 Mike Dreskin manages a large Los Angeles movie theater complex called Cinema I, II, III, and IV.
Each of the four auditoriums plays a different film;
the schedule is set so that starting times are staggered to avoid the large crowds that would occur if all four movies started at the same time. The theater has a single ticket booth and a cashier who can maintain an average service rate of 280 movie patrons per hour. Service times are assumed to follow an exponential distribution. Arrivals on a typically active day are Poisson distributed and average 210 per hour.
To determine the efficiency of the current ticket operation, Mike wishes to examine several queue operating characteristics.
