Abstract: Abstract This chapter considers a one-server, infinite capacity system with exponential inter-arrival times, and arbitrary service times with the average and standard deviation known. Could be a lift truck in a warehouse that hauls stock from the receiving dock to the storage area where the hauling time is normally distributed (not exponential). The lift truck is the service facility. The performance measures are developed and examples are presented.
