To accompany Quantitative Analysis for Management, 8e by Render/Stair/Hanna 14-2 © 2003 by Prentice Hall, Inc. Upper Saddle River, NJ 07458 Learning Objectives Students will be able to Describe the trade-off curves for cost-of-waiting time and cost-of- service. Understand the three parts of a queuing system: the calling population, the queue itself, and the service facility. Describe the basic queuing system configurations. Understand the assumptions of the common models dealt with in this chapter Analyze a variety of operating characteristics of waiting lines.
