Quantitative Analysis
1.What are the assumptions underlying common queuing models?
2.What are the assumptions necessary for a queuing calculation?
3.When are the Poisson and negative exponential distributions used?
4.What are the advantages and limitations of simulation models?
5.What is operational gaming? What is systems simulation? Give examples of how each may be applied.
6.What is Monte Carlo simulation? What principles underlie its use, and what steps are followed in applying it?
7.Formulate, develop, and solve a queuing problem for your business unit. For example, the phone calls coming to the receptionist, or work arriving by mail, phone, or in person. List and explain the assumptions that you had to make to enable the problem to be solved, but caused the model to be unrealistic.
Part 2-8
PLANS Assignment (1000 to 1200 words)
Think about an organizational improvement initiative that you
would like to make in an organization of your choice. This could be your
current or previous work organization, religious institution, community
organization or an organization that serves you as a customer. (Note this
could be a Capstone related issue if you want - See PLANS Depot).
First, briefly describe the problem or opportunity. Then identify specific
quantitative analysis techniques that could help you better understand the
nature of the problem or opportunity as well as craft appropriate
recommendations. What specific quantitative techniques offer the greatest
promise in such analysis? What specific hypotheses might be tested? What
insights would be sought in these analyses? What are some of the potential
threats to validity that should be considered?
