TITLE: Input and output analyser
APPARATUS:
 Arena software
 Computer System

Procedure:
Step 1
Collect the assigned data
Step 2
Put all the data in excel sheet (Figure 1)

Figure 1
Step 3
Save the file in prescribed format (Figure 2)
 Figure 2
Step 4
Open input analyser (Figure 3)

Figure 3
Step 5:
Open new file (Figure 4)

Figure 4
Step 6:
Access saved file (already converted) (Figure 5,6)

Figure 5

Figure 6
Step 7:
Fit the distribution to the given data (Figure 7)
 Figure 7
Step 8:
Chose the distribution will least error (Figure 8)

Output analysis (Hypothesis testing):

Step 1
Save any verified model in separate folder, copy the model and paste in same folder with
different names (Figure 1)

Figure 1

Step 2:
Open the base case model and create .dat file of the base case and of new case (resource
changes) (Figure 2, 3)

Figure 2

Figure 3
Step 3:
Batch run the model for desired replication number(Figure 4)
 Figure 4
Step 4:
Make desired changes to the resource’s quantity to create new case (which was already
copied from the base model and was renamed as new case). Repeat the same process for new
case model and create its .dat file. Batch run this model too for desired number of
replications.
Step 5:
Open output analyser from start menu of computer, create new file and add both .dat files.
Compare the means of both scenarios. (Figure 5, 6,7)

Figure 5
 Figure 6

Figure 7
Step 6:
Compare means and variance of both scenarios. Reject or accept the null hypothesis based on
the results. Reject null hypothesis if means are unequal. (Figure 8)
Compare different scenarios of cost by changing the resource input.
