Caselet on McDonald’s vs. Burger King - Waiting time
Instruction: McDonald’s vs. Burger King - these two fast food chains use different waiting line design: Independent queue vs. pooled queue. To compare the two different queue systems on equal footing, let’s assume that we pick a McDonald’s store as an experiment site. Assume that the customer inter-arrival time has a mean value a= 2 min. which is also equal to its std.dev. (so CVa=1). It has 2 registers operated by 2 cashers and supported by a team of kitchen staff. The order processing time (from talking to the casher until receiving the food) is on average 3 minutes with a CVp=1. In the first experiment, suppose we set up the rails in advance (as in a BK store) and ask all customers who walked into the door to form a single queue. Then the first customer in the queue can go to any vacant register to order food. In the second experiment, suppose the customer arrival to the store stays the same as the above. However, we take away the rails in advance and ask customers to choose either register A or B upon their entry to the restaurant front door. Thus, there are two independent waiting lines. Suppose that all customers agree that line-hopping is not allowed after a customer chooses the register to join the waiting line. You can also assume that the CVa=1 in the second system. Please compare the mean waiting times (Tq) between two systems.

The reference material and notes provided by the online electrical engineering tutor assigned to me by HwA was exactly what I was looking for. Keeping up with the course load is difficult enough without having to run from pillar to post searching for research material. The online electrical engineering tutor at HwA made my work much easier by providing me high quality reference material which met the specifications given by my professor.

During my MBAs, Economics was never my strength. I often took help from HwA and they helped me get good grades. But eventually, as I was reading through a demand-supply analysis economics solution provided by them, I started to gain some interest. I chatted with the econ tutor of HwA for an hour and believe it or not, I fell in love with the subject.

The math tutors at TheReliableTutor.com are very helpful and they have real knowledge about the subject. I have tried many other online assignment writing services but the quality that I have got from TheReliableTutor.com is unmatched. That is why now I only use them for all my math assignment help for my masters program.

I must say that the random variable assignment experts here in HwA can surely make the numbers talk. I was given a sheet of data to analyze and honestly I had no clue whatsoever on how to approach. When I came to them they explained me the concept of discrete random variables (as the data was of an outcome of random test on some microorganism) and helped me analyze the same. My teacher at college was very impressed and since then I take help from HwA.

The concepts surrounding kinetics and dynamics in chemical engineering often confused me in my initial days, till I came across HwA. Their team of online chemical engineering assignment experts helped me through the course by letting me get excellent grades in all of my assignments. And the best part is that because the tutors are from Singapore itself there is no gap in the communication between us.

Hello Allison,I love the 2nd image that you did! I also, had never heard of SumoPaint, is something that I will have to exolpre a bit! I understand completely the 52 (or so) youtube videos that you probably watched. Sometimes they have what you want, sometimes they don't! However, it is always satisfying when you are able to produce something that you have taught yourself. Great job!Debra 0 likes
