In this paper we describe the application of discrete event simulation for analyzing queues in a school restaurant. From these results we determine quantitative requirements for restaurant design including the randomness of each process and their interaction. Furthermore the use of graphic tools allowed a fruitful interaction with the team in charge of the architectural design. We show the model construction process, the diverse scenarios analyzed, and the selected configuration, which shows strong advantages against the current design. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
In this paper we describe the implementation of a single-route city-bus timetabling LP model proposed by Riaño [15]. The aforementioned model considers stochastic issues like travel time and demand. A simulation model is also described, which was used to compare results from this model with others proposed in the literature. Preliminar results are promising. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
