    Jody Abbot, the CIO of a medical billing company, is considering a new Internet program to better track queries on insurance files and medical records in order to handle the company’s growing needs. She has identified three systems she thinks will work well and would now like feedback from the managers of medical records, customer service, and insurance management. Jody has decided to set up a meeting that includes various managers and key staff from her department to review all three of the programs in order to determine which will best fit the needs of the managers. She plans to allow managers to review the programs and experience how they work. This will allow Jody and her staff to determine which to choose.
    Which of the following is an advantage to having the managers meet in person instead of virtually?
    Jody and her staff can observe nonverbal cues.
    The IT staff can offer their experience and answer questions.
    The meeting will be easier to arrange.
    There will be fewer distractions from cell phones and other technology.
    In this situation, how many people should be invited to attend the meeting?
    10 or fewer
    5 or fewer
    30 or fewer
    All employees
    Successful professionals must use their time effectively. Busy schedules make meeting efficiency important. How can you help make meetings run more efficiently and effectively?
    Create an agenda
    Use an electron meeting request
    Let the team know meeting minutes will be distributed later

    A small country in Sub-Saharan Africa received a significant amount of funds from the World Bank to develop its internet infrastructure. The network below illustrates, in hundreds of kilometres, the distances between the cities (from city A to city N). Please note that, while the arcs between the nodes are straight lines, on the actual ground, these arcs meander, go through tunnels and cross rivers. The Implementing Agent (IA) for this project wishes to determine the least cost way of connecting these cities so that all have state-of-the-art internet provision. Some information provided for the project is as follows:
    Materials needed cost R200 per kilometre
    Labour cost is R400 per hour
    Each kilometre requires three hours to be covered.
    The data analyst that is working with the IA has indicated that there must be a table that summarises all the steps that are taken to connect the cities in the least cost way.
    Required:
    1.1 Develop a table and then provide a short explanation of a full summary of all the steps that are taken to connect the cities in the least cost way in terms of the minimised total distance. (10)
    1.2 Use the provided information to calculate the minimum amount (in Rand terms) that is required to provide the internet connection to all the cities in this small country. (15)
    1.3 In less than half a page, discuss any other information that you would deem relevant for the successful completion of this project?

    For this question, we return to Pat’s, one of the Philadelphia cheesesteak restaurants mentioned in Problem Set 17 about market share analysis. Cheesesteak service at Pat’s is limited to a single walk-up window: as a customer, you get into a single-file line and, upon reaching the service window, you order your sandwich, pay for it, receive it, and leave. Suppose, on average, that 48 customers arrive per hour, while the average service time per customer is 40 seconds. Assume that the single-channel (M/M/1) queuing model is appropriate for this scenario. (Include at least three decimal places in your answers.)
    (a) Indicate the average arrival rate λ in customers per minute.
    (b) Indicate the average service rate μ in customers per minute.
    (c) What is the probability that the service window completes a customer’s order within
    18 seconds?
    45 seconds?
    1 minute, 12 seconds?
    (d) Determine the probability that the number of arrivals in a one-minute period is
    no customers?
    one customer?
    two customers?
    more than two customers?
    (e) What is the probability that an arriving customer will have to wait for service?
    (f) What is the average number of customers waiting in line?
    (g) What is the average amount of time, in minutes, that a customer spends waiting in line (i.e., before they reach the service window)?
    (h) What is the average number of customers in the service system?
