Queue Simulation Metrics ​

Upon completion of a simulation, various metrics can be retrieved using the .metrics_summary method. This method does not accept any parameters. The following metrics are provided:

  • Average Time in System
  • Average Time in Queue
  • Average Time in Service
  • Standard Deviation of Time in System
  • Standard Deviation of Time in Queue
  • Standard Deviation of Time in Service
  • Average Number of Elements in the System
  • Average Number of Elements in the Queue
  • Probability of Joining the System
  • Probability of Finishing After a Specified Time
  • Probability of Waiting in the Queue
  • Utilization of Each Server

After the simulation is executed, the metrics can be viewed by calling:

python
simulation_basic.metrics_summary()

The .metrics_summary method can be invoked regardless of the queue discipline (FIFO, LIFO, or PBS).
