Drawing on your own experience and class discussions of types of production and service systems, choose an example of an application for each of the four models listed above. Note why each model would apply. Note the limitations of each model. (Example: Single Channel system would be the drive-up window at Burger King—there is a single line, and a single server. Arrivals must follow a Poisson Distribution. Service times must be exponentially distributed.) Post your examples and explanation (in a single post) to the discussion board
