		Part I. 
	
		A temporary Covid-19 vaccination site is interested in looking at their staffing for their peak period, running from 10 am 
	
		to 2 pm. People arrive to the site via walking, by car, or on a roughly scheduled bus, as follows: 
	
		• On foot – one at a time, interarrivals are exponential with a mean of 3 minutes; the first walk-in occurs at 
	
		EXPO(3) min past 10 am. 
	
		• By Car – with either one, two, three, or four people to a car with respective probabilities 0.2, 0.3, 0.3, and 0.2; 
	
		interarrivals distributed as exponential with mean of 5 minutes, and the first car arrives EXPO(5) minutes past 10 
	
		am. 
	
		• By Bus: a SINGLE bus arrives once every day sometimes between 11 am and 1 pm (arrival time is distributed 
	
		uniformly during this period). The number of people on the bus varies from day to day, but it appears to follow 
	
		a Poisson distribution with a mean of 30 people. 
	
		Once people arrive, either alone or in a group, they operate independently, regardless of how they arrived. The first stop 
	
		is with one of the servers at the check-in screening counter, where people first get their temperature taken and are 
	
		asked a series of screening questions and then provide their identification and health insurance information. The 
	
		temperature and screening take TRIA (1,2,4) minutes and the review of their identification and health insurance 
	
		information takes TRIA (1,2,3) minutes; the health screening and presentation of proper identification and insurance are 
	
		done in that order, and they are performed by the same resource. 
	
		After screening, the next stop is to walk over to the injection queue and receive the vaccination; the vaccination itself 
	
		takes between 30 seconds and 2 minutes (uniformly distributed) to confirm ID again, prepare the arm for the shot, inject 
	
		the shot, place a bandage on the arm, and remind the newly vaccinated “patient” of the after-care protocol. 
	
		After vaccination, each patient goes to a recovery area with 24 socially-distant seats set up in a Wifi-enabled area. Each 
	
		patient is told to wait after their shot to make sure they do not faint or experience anaphylaxis. Even though the 
	
		patients are told to wait 15-20 minutes, their wait time is actually dependent on the type of patient arrivals: arrivals on- 
	
		foot tend to be those who have more flexibility in their schedule, and wait in the recovery area on the higher end at 
	
		TRIA(15, 20,30) minutes; arrivals by car are busy families and professionals, and have a lower tolerance for waiting at 
	
		TRIA (10, 12, 15) minutes; and finally, the patients arriving via bus follow a wait time of TRIA(11, 20, 31) minutes. Note

		that the bus will not leave the facility until everyone has been accounted for, so those only in recovery area for 11 
	
		minutes must just really want the best seat on the bus . 
	
		Queueing at each of the service stations (screening, injection, and recovery area) is allowed (the queue line is marked 
	
		for social distancing) and all have a FIFO discipline. There is a travel time of EXPO(30) seconds from each station to all 
	
		but the exit door- entry to screening, screening to injection, injection to recovery area. After recovering, the travel time 
	
		from recovery waiting area to the exit door is EXPO(1) minute. 
	
		The servers at both screening and injection area have a single break that they can “share” on a rotating basis. More 
	
		specifically at 10:50 am, 11:50 am, 12:50 pm, and 1:50 pm, one server from each station goes on a 10-minute break; if 
	
		the person due to go on break at a station is busy at break time, they finish serving the patient but still have to be back 
	
		at the top of the hour (which means the break could be shorter than 10 min, unfortunately). 
	
		Staffing is of concern for this vaccination site. Currently, there are six servers at the screening intake area, but only two 
	
		injectors at the injection area throughout the 4-hour period. 
	
		Part 1 
	
		Build the model above, specifically using Stations, for a period of 30 days (replications). Provide a basic animation using 
	
		Stations/Routes from the Animation tab. Choose “humanoid” entities. It may be helpful to choose a different entity 
	
		picture for each arrival type to help you verify your model. 
	
		Observe the following: 
	
		• average and maximum queue length in each queue 
	
		• average and maximum time in each queue 
	
		• total people vaccinated (meaning, post recovery and have left the system) 
	
		• total time in system by arrival type 
	
		Note: Include a 95% confidence interval for all averages. You do not need to provide a confidence interval for “max” 
	
		values. Interpret your results. 
	
		Part 2 
	
		Since staff knows that the bus arrives sometime in the middle 2 hours, they are considering a variable staffing plan that, 
	
		for the first and last hour would have three resources at screening, and for the middle 2 hours, they would have 9 at the 
	
		screening area. Similarly, for the vaccination area, the staff would have just one injector for the first and last hour, and 
	
		for the middle 2 hours, there would be 3 injectors to combat the bus crowd. Note that the same breaks as in Part 1 still 
	
		apply. Assume this change would be done by shuffling the existing resources; in other words, the total payroll cost is the 
	
		same for either staffing plan and cost is not a consideration. 
	
		Observe the following (for 30 replications): 
	
		• average and maximum queue length in each queue 
	
		• average and maximum time in each queue 
	
		• total time in system by arrival type 
	
		• total people vaccinated (meaning, post recovery and have left the system)
