• See the PROJECT information on this line or below.  This is important!  Final Project
• If your partner has dropped the course, please e-mail me as soon as possible.  I will try to match you with a new partner. If anyone requires a partner NOW please contact me (Oct. 25).
• You can obtain your current marks by clicking on the LINK above to Marks or here   Marks to date .
• Answers to assignment 1 are here  Assignment 1 solutions The 40x40 initial matrix is available here Monopoly Matrix
• Check CHAT pages for  announcements, etc. There was a typo in the interarrivbal rate that has been corrected  2 2 4..  instead of 2 3 4 .. and the MATLAB transpose is A'  single quote.
• Assignment 2 consists of the following 6 problems:TEXTBOOK Page 60 #21 #22. Page 138 #12 #15 plus 2 straight forward MATLAB problems  which will be handed out in class. The DUE date of Oct 19 has been extended to Monday October 23 4-6PM to give you the extra weekend.  The elevator problem #22 can be done manually with a given RANDOM set of inter-arrival times for boxes of each type.  For simplicity, these times may be integers for the box question but not #12 or #15. The queueing question may need some software which you can write in C if you like or borrow the MATLAB queue software which you can copy  by clicking here queue software or from the Z:drive in the lab.  It is NOT essential that you do this.
• My Office Hours are Mondays 4:10 PM-6:00 PM. I am available by appointment also.
• The software from last class is available in the lab HP3933 in the z: drive.  Do change your path to make sure that your MATLAB looks there. Type "help path" for directions. You will do something like   path(path,'Z:\ipress')
• We have this lab booked every Monday from 4:30 to 6:00.    Click here for some gaming rules  available for those interested in simulating other games.
• The text book is Discrete-Event System Simulation, 3/e (2001) by J. Banks et al.
