3.3 Develop Model of Specialized Serial Processing and Generalized Parallel Processing

Model 1 involves specialized serial processing where each loan application passes through different workers sequentially. There is a queue for each worker with exponential delays. Model 2 uses parallel processing where each worker handles all steps for a loan application individually with applications in a single queue. The models are compared based on metrics like work in process, total time, waiting time and worker utilization.

Model 1: specialized serial processing/ specialized separated work

 Specialize the worker with different loan application process


 Each application have to go through from one to the next worker to complete the steps of
the loan process

MODULES:

CREATE DIALOG BOX AND SPREADSHEET


PROCESS

 Placed 4 process module for each worker: Alfie, Betty, Chuck , and Doris
 For delay type, choose expression. Right click expression box and choose build
expression, then random distributions, finally choose exponential (distribution) with the
mean value is 1.

RUN SETUP
Model 2: Parallel Processing/ Generalized Integrated Work

 Each worker processes all four steps of one application at a time with a single queue

MODULES:

CREATE
PROCESS

RESOURCE DATA MODULE


DISPOSE
RESOURCE ANIMATION

 This dialog box shows the DEFAULT IDLE AND BUSY ICON/ PICTURE
CHANGE DEFAULT IDLE AND BUSY ICON/ PICTURE

 Double click idle icon to get Resource Picture Placement Window, and duplicate the
white square 3 times and line them all up vertically
 Then select the new idle icon, copy and paste it as new busy icon as shown in below
dialog box

 Double click a circle representing the Seize Area to get its dialog box in the model
window. Select point, and add 3 points and finally drag each additional seize area inside
each box that represent the resource/worker
