Scenario E.1 SimQuick is being used to simulate the following bank process: Entrance Door Buffer Line Work Station Teller Buffer Served Customers Customer arrivals at the Entrance Door of the bank with an average time between arrivals of 2.5 minutes. The Line Buffer holds 6 customers. If a customer arrives and the buffer line is filled, the customer leaves. The Work Station Teller's processing time per customer is normally distributed, with a mean of 3.0 minutes and a standard deviation of 0.5 minutes.
