In the hand simulation of the simple processing system, supposethat the queue discipline were changed so that when the drill pressbecomes idle and finds parts wait- ing in queue, instead of takingthe first one, it instead takes the one that will require theshortest processing time (this is sometimes called an SPT queuediscipline). To make this work, you’ll need to assign a secondattribute to parts in the system when they arrive, representingwhat their service time at the drill press will be. Redo the handsimulation. Is this a better rule? From what perspective?
