  • Discrete and Continuous Time Markov Chains
  • Queuing
  • Simulation 

For this assignment, do the following:

Identify at least 2 operations research models from the Web site. Explain how the chosen models could be used in your workplace to aid in decision-making. Describe the scenario in your workplace to which the models apply. Post your findings on the Discussion Board. 

Main post should be 23 paragraphs of original information. Your subsequent post to the other students recommendation should be 23 paragraphs of original information.

Post should include at least 1 reference to research sources, and all sources should be cited in APA format.

Grammar, spelling, punctuation, and format should be correct and professional.
