  1. Queuing CEE 320Anne Goodchild

  2. Outline • Fundamentals • Poisson Distribution • Notation • Applications • Analysis • Graphical • Numerical • Example

  3. Fundamentals of Queuing Theory • Microscopic traffic flow • Different analysis than theory of traffic flow • Intervals between vehicles is important • Rate of arrivals is important • Arrivals • Departures • Service rate

  4. Activated Downstream Upstream of bottleneck/server Arrivals Departures Server/bottleneck Direction of flow

  5. Not Activated Arrivals Departures server

  6. Flow Analysis • Bottleneck active • Service rate is capacity • Downstream flow is determined by bottleneck service rate • Arrival rate > departure rate • Queue present

  7. Flow Analysis • Bottle neck not active • Arrival rate < departure rate • No queue present • Service rate = arrival rate • Downstream flow equals upstream flow

  9. Fundamentals of Queuing Theory • Arrivals • Arrival rate (veh/sec) • Uniform • Poisson • Time between arrivals (sec) • Constant • Negative exponential • Service • Service rate • Service times • Constant • Negative exponential

  10. Queue Discipline • First In First Out (FIFO) • prevalent in traffic engineering • Last In First Out (LIFO)

  11. Total vehicle delay Queue Analysis – Graphical D/D/1 Queue Departure Rate Delay of nth arriving vehicle Arrival Rate Maximum queue Vehicles Maximum delay Queue at time, t1 t1 Time Where is capacity?

  12. Poisson Distribution • Good for modeling random events • Count distribution • Uses discrete values • Different than a continuous distribution

  13. Poisson Ideas • Probability of exactly 4 vehicles arriving • P(n=4) • Probability of less than 4 vehicles arriving • P(n<4) = P(0) + P(1) + P(2) + P(3) • Probability of 4 or more vehicles arriving • P(n≥4) = 1 – P(n<4) = 1 - P(0) + P(1) + P(2) + P(3) • Amount of time between arrival of successive vehicles

  16. Example: Arrival Intervals

  17. Queue Notation Number of service channels • Popular notations: • D/D/1, M/D/1, M/M/1, M/M/N • D = deterministic • M = some distribution Arrival rate nature Departure rate nature

  18. Queuing Theory Applications • D/D/1 • Deterministic arrival rate and service times • Not typically observed in real applications but reasonable for approximations • M/D/1 • General arrival rate, but service times deterministic • Relevant for many applications • M/M/1 or M/M/N • General case for 1 or many servers

  19. Queue times depend on variability

  20. Steady state assumption Queue Analysis – Numerical • M/D/1 • Average length of queue • Average time waiting in queue • Average time spent in system λ = arrival rate μ = departure rate =traffic intensity

  21. Queue Analysis – Numerical • M/M/1 • Average length of queue • Average time waiting in queue • Average time spent in system λ = arrival rate μ = departure rate =traffic intensity

  22. Queue Analysis – Numerical • M/M/N • Average length of queue • Average time waiting in queue • Average time spent in system λ = arrival rate μ = departure rate =traffic intensity

  23. M/M/N – More Stuff • Probability of having no vehicles • Probability of having n vehicles • Probability of being in a queue λ = arrival rate μ = departure rate =traffic intensity

  24. Poisson Distribution Example Vehicle arrivals at the Olympic National Park main gate are assumed Poisson distributed with an average arrival rate of 1 vehicle every 5 minutes. What is the probability of the following: • Exactly 2 vehicles arrive in a 15 minute interval? • Less than 2 vehicles arrive in a 15 minute interval? • More than 2 vehicles arrive in a 15 minute interval? From HCM 2000

  25. Example Calculations Exactly 2: Less than 2: P(0)=e-.2*15=0.0498, P(1)=0.1494 More than 2:

  26. Example 1 You are entering Bank of America Arena at Hec Edmunson Pavilion to watch a basketball game. There is only one ticket line to purchase tickets. Each ticket purchase takes an average of 18 seconds. The average arrival rate is 3 persons/minute. Find the average length of queue and average waiting time in queue assuming M/M/1 queuing.

  27. Example 1 • Departure rate: μ = 18 seconds/person or 3.33 persons/minute • Arrival rate: λ = 3 persons/minute • ρ = 3/3.33 = 0.90 • Q-bar = 0.902/(1-0.90) = 8.1 people • W-bar = 3/3.33(3.33-3) = 2.73 minutes • T-bar = 1/(3.33 – 3) = 3.03 minutes

  28. Example 2 You are now in line to get into the Arena. There are 3 operating turnstiles with one ticket-taker each. On average it takes 3 seconds for a ticket-taker to process your ticket and allow entry. The average arrival rate is 40 persons/minute. Find the average length of queue, average waiting time in queue assuming M/M/N queuing.

  29. Example 2 • N = 3 • Departure rate: μ = 3 seconds/person or 20 persons/minute • Arrival rate: λ = 40 persons/minute • ρ = 40/20 = 2.0 • ρ/N = 2.0/3 = 0.667 < 1 so we can use the other equations • P0 = 1/(20/0! + 21/1! + 22/2! + 23/3!(1-2/3)) = 0.1111 • Q-bar = (0.1111)(24)/(3!*3)*(1/(1 – 2/3)2) = 0.88 people • T-bar = (2 + 0.88)/40 = 0.072 minutes = 4.32 seconds • W-bar = 0.072 – 1/20 = 0.022 minutes = 1.32 seconds

  30. Example 3 You are now inside the Arena. They are passing out Harry the Husky doggy bags as a free giveaway. There is only one person passing these out and a line has formed behind her. It takes her exactly 6 seconds to hand out a doggy bag and the arrival rate averages 9 people/minute. Find the average length of queue, average waiting time in queue, and average time spent in the system assuming M/D/1 queuing.

  31. Example 3 • N = 1 • Departure rate: μ = 6 seconds/person or 10 persons/minute • Arrival rate: λ = 9 persons/minute • ρ = 9/10 = 0.9 • Q-bar = (0.9)2/(2(1 – 0.9)) = 4.05 people • W-bar = 0.9/(2(10)(1 – 0.9)) = 0.45 minutes = 27 seconds • T-bar = (2 – 0.9)/((2(10)(1 – 0.9) = 0.55 minutes = 33 seconds
