IE 403 Practice Exam: Simulation Overview

1. Model in Arena the following statements:

a) A job arrives to a certain machine exponential distributed with a mean of 4 minutes
b) The machine is working on parts according to TRIA(5,7,10) minutes.
c) Completed jobs must go through inspection process according to uniform distribution
within the range of 6 to 12 minutes.
d) Good parts are going to packaging process which is distributed according to a triangular
distribution TRIA (7, 10, 15) minutes.
e) Bad Parts must be reworked one time, O.W. is scrapped.
2. Which template do you need to access the Expression spreadsheet in an Arena
program?
a) Basic Process.
b) Basic Transfer.
c) Advanced Process.
d) Advanced Transfer.
3. What is the Arena expression for an exponential random variable with a mean of 8?

4. How to make the model run for 10,000 minutes in Arena?

5. A model should be started with create and with patching. (TRUE or FALSE?).

6. IE engineer is trying to classify jobs size and quantity, what would be the most
appropriate tool that can be used in Arena to solve his/her case.

7. An Arena attribute is global. (TRUE or FALSE?)
