  A Simulation Model for Time Measurement
 
 
Title: A Simulation Model for Time Measurement
Author: Conrad, Robert B.
Appeared in: IIE transactions
Paging: Volume 3 (1971) nr. 2 pages 142-149

Contents: A proposed simulation measurement model is developed which does not rely on the assumption that elements are random variables; therefore, it is based on the assumption that different times exist for the elements, depending upon their sequence of occurrence. By recognizing the sequential arrangement of elements, the interdependence among the elements is recognized. The proposed model includes a learning factor which reduces initial times in relation to the learning which occurs with each subsequent cycle. The model also provides flexibility for expressing the time values themselves. The mean value can still be used, but a randomly selected distribution of values or the operator's own times can be relied on whenever the analyst so desires.
