2. The System

3. The Model

4. Simplifications and Assumptions

5. Data

6. Inter-Arrival Times

7. Model Maker Service Times

8. Performance Analysis

9. Verification, Validation and Resulting Refinements n n Shifts n n Gate n n Disk Drives n n UV Oven

10. Validation Metrics

11. Variations on the Model n Add third workstation and model maker n Add third SLA Machine n Forced Batching

12. Comparison of Models

13. Conclusions n Model is not completely validated n Better SLA service time is required; collect more data n Addition of 3rd SLA would improve cycle time n other variants show no improvement

14. Thank you for your time!
