Abstract :
The study of queueing systems presents mathematical
barriers to the novice, although the phenomena of queues can
be readily observed in everyday life. In addition, English-speaking
faculty have language barriers to surmount with Japanese students.
This paper describes a graphical user interface to allow
quick and easy comprehension of the dynamical behavior of
queues. The interface is implemented using Tcl/Tk, a high-level
window programming script language that allows for the rapid
development of educational software. An outline is presented
for a set of exercises for a lower division laboratory. This
material is also appropriate for laboratories associated with
courses in operating systems, queueing systems, and performance
evaluation.
Keywords :
