<p>The Management of Academic Service continues to be a major challenge for many college, high school and college organizations in providing better services with fewer resources. The allocation of service staffs and response-time in service involve many challenging issues, because the mean and variance of the response-time in service can be increased dramatically with the intensity of heavy traffic. This study discusses how to use simulation models to improve response time in service operation. Performance at the Academic Service as a whole can be considered very good and is still idle due to utilization of Academic Service, which is still equal to an average of 17%, or it can be said that the workload is not too excessive and deemed to be able to serve the students and lecturers. The performance of Academic Sevice University Bunda Mulia can be considered excellent in terms of operations management, as indicated by the average waiting time, which is very short at only 9.10 seconds.<br />Keywords: Queueing System, Waiting Time, and Simulation</p>

<p><em><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: medium;">Academic Administration Service management continues to be a major challenge for many Universities or school organizations as Universities are required to provide more services with less resources. Short response times for service are essential to avoid disruptions to University’s day to day activities or Academic Administration Service’s facilities. Managers must regularly assess their manpower needs, and ensure that their allocations and operational decisions lead to the best service at the lowest cost. Service staff allocation and response-time in service involves many challenging problems, because the mean and variance of the response-time in service can increase dramatically with traffic intensity, consequently the design for this system has to be able to cope with this complication. This experiment discusses how to use simulation model to improve response-time in service operations. Simulation experiments for analyzing the steady-state behavior of queuing systems over a range of traffic intensities are considered the best method of solution. </span></em></p><p><em><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: medium;">The technique of simulation consists of taking random samples from the probability distribution which represents the real-world system. </span></em></p><p><em><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: medium;">In this research the effects of dependent departure intervals on waiting times are examined for a one-station queuing system, and inter-arrival times are compared to a computer-simulated inter-arrival times having dependent arrivals.

This paper is devoted to the practical implications of the theoretical results obtained in Part I [1] for queueing systems consisting of two single-server queues in series in which the service times of an arbitrary customer at both queues are identical. For this purpose some tables and graphs are included. A comparison is made—mainly by numerical and asymptotic techniques—between the following two phenomena: (i) the queueing behaviour at the second counter of the two-stage tandem queue and (ii) the queueing behaviour at a single-server queue with the same offered (Poisson) traffic as the first counter and the same service-time distribution as the second counter. This comparison makes it possible to assess the influence of the first counter on the queueing behaviour at the second counter. In particular we note that placing the first counter in front of the second counter in heavy traffic significantly reduces both the mean and variance of the total time spent in the second system.

Kingman (1962) studied the effect of queue discipline on the mean and variance of the waiting time. He made no assumptions regarding the stochastic nature of the input and the service distributions, except that the input and service processes are independent of each other. When the following two conditions hold: (a) no server sits idle while there are customers waiting to be served; (b) the busy period is finite with probability one (i.e., the queue empties infinitely often with probability one); he has shown that the mean waiting time is independent of the queue discipline and the variance of the waiting time is a minimum when the customers are served in order of their arrival. Conditions (a) and (b) will henceforward be called Kingman conditions and a queueing system satisfying Kingman conditions will be referred to in the text as a Kingman queue.

We propose a method for metamodeling non-deterministic computer intensive simulations for use in robust design. Generalized linear models for mean responses and heteroscadastic response variances are iteratively estimated in an integrated manner. Estimators that may be used for predicting the mean and variance models are introduced and metamodels of variance are developed. The usefulness of this metamodeling approach in efficient uncertainty analyses of non-deterministic, computationally-intensive simulation models for robust design methods is illustrated with the example of the design of a linear cellular alloy heat exchanger with randomly distributed cracks in the cell walls.

AbstractWe present a novel framework for efficient and robust facial feature representation based upon Local Binary Pattern (LBP), called Weighted Statistical Binary Pattern, wherein the descriptors utilize the straight-line topology along with different directions. The input image is initially divided into mean and variance moments. A new variance moment, which contains distinctive facial features, is prepared by extracting root k-th. Then, when Sign and Magnitude components along four different directions using the mean moment are constructed, a weighting approach according to the new variance is applied to each component. Finally, the weighted histograms of Sign and Magnitude components are concatenated to build a novel histogram of Complementary LBP along with different directions. A comprehensive evaluation using six public face datasets suggests that the present framework outperforms the state-of-the-art methods and achieves 98.51% for ORL, 98.72% for YALE, 98.83% for Caltech, 99.52% for AR, 94.78% for FERET, and 99.07% for KDEF in terms of accuracy, respectively. The influence of color spaces and the issue of degraded images are also analyzed with our descriptors. Such a result with theoretical underpinning confirms that our descriptors are robust against noise, illumination variation, diverse facial expressions, and head poses.

Group level measures of welfare flocks have been criticized on the grounds that they give only average measures and overlook the welfare of individual animals. However, we here show that the group-level optical flow patterns made by broiler flocks can be used to deliver information not just about the flock averages but also about the proportion of individuals in different movement categories. Mean optical flow provides information about the average movement of the whole flock while the variance, skew and kurtosis quantify the variation between individuals. We correlated flock optical flow patterns with the behavior and welfare of a sample of 16 birds per flock in two runway tests and a water (latency-to-lie) test. In the runway tests, there was a positive correlation between the average time taken to complete the runway and the skew and kurtosis of optical flow on day 28 of flock life (on average slow individuals came from flocks with a high skew and kurtosis). In the water test, there was a positive correlation between the average length of time the birds remained standing and the mean and variance of flock optical flow (on average, the most mobile individuals came from flocks with the highest mean). Patterns at the flock level thus contain valuable information about the activity of different proportions of the individuals within a flock.

Recent studies suggest that the developmental curves in adolescence, related to the development of executive functions, could be fitted to a non-linear trajectory of development with progressions and retrogressions. Therefore, the present study proposes to analyze the pattern of development in Perceptual Inhibition (PI), considering all stages of adolescence (early, middle, and late) in intervals of one year. To this aim, we worked with a sample of 275 participants between 10 and 25 years, who performed a joint visual and search task (to measure PI). We have fitted ex-Gaussian functions to the probability distributions of the mean response time across the sample and performed a covariance analysis (ANCOVA). The results showed that the 10- to 13-year-old groups performed similarly in the task and differ from the 14- to 19-year-old participants. We found significant differences between the older group and all the rest of the groups. We discuss the important changes that can be observed in relation to the nonlinear trajectory of development that would show the PI during adolescence.
