Simulate Airport - Calculate Average Time A Plane Stays Inside A Queue For
Nov 13, 2014
Write a program to simulate this airport's operation. You might assume a simulated clock that advances in one-minute intervals. For each minute, generate two random numbers: If the first in less than LandingTime /60, a "landing arrival" has occurred and is added to the landing queue, and if the second is less than TakeOffTime /60, a "takeoff arrival" has occurred and is added to the takeoff queue.
Next, check whether the runway is free. If it is, first check whether the landing queue is nonempty, and if so, allow the first plane to land; otherwise, consider the takeoff queue. Have the program calculate the average queue length and the average time that an airplane spends in a queue.
I have most of the code done as you can see below:
Right now, I am stuck on the first calculation which is trying to figure out the average size of the landing queue. For some reason, as you can see at the bottom of my demo program, the average always comes out to be 0.0 and I'm not sure what's wrong.
Secondly, how to calculate the average time a plane stays inside a queue for.
Suppose that a certain airport has one runway, that each airplane takes LandingTime minutes to land and TakeOffTime minutes to take off, and that on the average, TakeOffTime planes take off and LandingTime planes land each hour.
Assume that the planes arrive at random instants of time. (Delays make the assumption to randomness quite reasonable.) There are 2 types of queues: a queue of airplanes waiting to land and a queue of airplanes waiting go take off. Because it is more expensive to keep a plane airborne than to have one waiting on the ground, we assume that the airplanes in the landing queue have priority over those in the take off queue.

Have the program calculate the average queue length and the average time that an airplane spends in a queue. You might also investigate the effect of varying arrival and departure rates to simulate the prime and slack times of day, or what happens if the amount of time to land or takeoff is increased or decreased.

Right now, I'm struggling with the demo program. I wrote some pseudocode in which I tried to match what the instructions were asking:
Firstly, exactly how many minutes am I supposed to be doing this for? The assignment gave me a variable called final int ITERATIONS = 1440 , could that have something to do with how long I loop? Secondly, what exactly do I add to the queue if the conditions are true. For example, if rand1 < LANDING_RATE/60, what would I enqueue to the landingQueue? Thirdly, how am I supposed to check if the runway is free? Does that mean check to see whether the takeOffQueue is empty or not? Fourth, would allowing the first plane to land mean removing an item from the landingQueue? Also, what does it mean by "otherwise, consider the takeoff queue". Does that mean if the landingQueue is empty, I should start removing items from the takeOff queue?
The biggest problem is the fact that I have to calculate the average queue length and average time that an airplane spends in a queue.

I'm having a random x and y coordinate generate and I need to check if the coordinates are inside of a right triangle on this imaginary coordinate plane.
I am running into some trouble with Line-Plane intersection, my method works, provided I am perpendicular to the plane I want to intersect. This is caused be the plane equation (with my given x, y, and z coordinates, the equation is -Z - 1 = 0). So the equation is only relying on the Z value of anything inputted. Is there another way to calculate the equation of a plane that would rely on all axis? Here is my current code:

You are to write a parallel program that will receive a large array of unsorted integers containing digits from 0 to 99. The program will have to calculate the SUM and AVERAGE of ODD number digits between 25 and 75 (inclusive).
The user may specify the size or the array and the total processor that the machine has. The size of the array must be divisible by number of processor. Based on the given size, the computer will generate random integer numbers automatically to populate the array.
The program should display the status of the calculation for each processor. The result should be displayed after all calculations are completed.Error messages should be displayed appropriately
a) Write a sequential (non-parallel) program that will accomplish above task. b) Write a concurrent (parallel) program that will produce the result of the above task.

I wasn't supposed to use the % in front of f.I have to make a program to calculate the average temperature and annual precipitation in Jacksonville. I get this error on line 49:

I am to design a program in java that will allow a user to Input a list of your family members along with their age and state where they reside. Determine and print the average age of your family and print the names of anyone who live in Texas. I have tried but my results are wrong.
Write a method called statistic that simulates the rolling of two dice 1000 times. (1000 times is a parameter of the method statistic).The program should have no input, and should use pseudo random numbers to simulate the rolls (one random number per die). Store the sum resulting from each roll of two dice, determine the number of times each 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, and 12 was rolled. The out produced by the program is:
public static void main(String[] args) { statistic(1000); } public static void statistic(int number) { Random randomNumbers = new Random();

i have been trying for hours to make it look like the output above but no luck. I was wondering if there's any other way writing the code without using arrays.
I have designed an applet to simulate a stack (last-in, first-out) of strings. The applet consists of:
Two JButtons Two JTextFields Two JLabels A TextArea
The user enters text in the first text field then clicks the push button and it goes in the textArea. After entering several strings the user can click the pop button and the top string goes into the second text field. I am a total newbie and am stuck. I can get a string of text to push to the textArea and then pop it out; however I can't stack them LIFO. Most examples I've seen use integers and I'm not sure how to translate the concept to strings. I'm just not sure how the stack concept works even though I read the API webpage.
my assignment is to code a program to simulate the rolling of 2 dice. I have most of it set but when I run it and have it print out how many times each number (2-12) was rolled, it displays the numbers 1 off. for instance it will display the number of 4s rolled next to the 5s.
here it is
import java.util.Scanner; //allows info to be inputted// import java.util.Random; //opens random number generator// public class RollTheDiceWithArray13 {
Write a program to simulate the rolling of two dice. The program should use Math.random (google how to use Math.random if needed) to roll the first die and should use Math.random again to roll the second die. The sum of the two values should then be calculated your program should roll 50,000 times. Use a single dimensional array to tally the numbers of times each possible sum appear(the possible values are 2 through 12, think about why?). Print the results in a tabular format.
Here's the code I'm working on so far:
public class RollingDice{ public static void main(String[] args){ int die1; int die2; int roll; die1 = (int)(Math.random()*6) + 1; die2 = (int)(Math.random()*6) + 1; roll = die1 + die2; System.out.println("The roll of the first dice is: " + die1); System.out.println("The roll of the second dice is: " + die2); System.out.println("Your total roll is: " + roll); } }
What am I missing at this point, and what parts did I do wrong to change it?
I need to create and simulate an ATM interface for my computer programming class using scanner class, if else & switch statements. I've been working on this assignment all day and I'm still no closer to figuring out how to do it. I'm currently working in NetBeans to try and solve it. I have attached the pdf , what I need to do. This is what I have so far:
package bankatmifelse; //Gator Bank ATM Program import java.util.Scanner; public class BankATMIfElse {
import java.util.Random; /** * A very basic Dice that can be rolled and represent int values */
public class Dice{ private Random rand; public Dice(){ rand=new Random(); } /**simulates rolling the dice*/
[Code] ....
Why the Random rand is initiated at the Constructor and not at roll? Like the code works for both but I remember our teacher telling us something about one uses more memory than the other.
Write a program to simulate the operation of a simple robot. The robot moves in four directions: Forward, backwawrd, left, and right. The job of the robot is to move items and place it in the right slots in each station. There are 8 stations plus the pickup station. Pick up station is the initial start where the robot picks the items. 8 items can be placed on each station. The nearest station must be filled before placing items on the next station. The items are marked with identification or serial numbers. The items with odd serial number go to the right and items with even number go to the eft. The last slot, number 7 is reserved for light items which are less than 80kg. The serial number is a five digit number, the MSB digit 5 indicates that the product must be placed in the fifth station which is keeping the product at 20 degree F.
How can i write a java program that simulate a simple calculator that performs the basic arithmetic operations of JAVA. (JOption Pane and Repeat control structure)
Example : Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication, Division.
The program will prompt to input two floating point numbers and a character that represents the operations presented above. In the event that the operator input is valid, prompt the user to input the operator again.
I am working on an assignment that I can't seem to figure out the final part to. The program takes in course data such as the time the class starts and how long it lasts. The time is in military time (0000 - 2400)
I need the output time to be the time the class started, plus the length of the class, and displayed in military time.
I can't for the life of me figure out how to do this. I have gotten a program that works for this time and minutes, and displays the correct 1020. But when I change the information to say
Start time: 0700 Length = 90 minutes
I get:
Endtime = 90
90 is technically correct, the way the formula is setup, but I need it to display 0900 not 90.
Here is the code that I have. Be easy, I'm still learning, and this is just the file I created to get the formula to work. Also, the verbose in here is just for my own debugging to make sure values should be what I'm expecting them to be.
public class calc { public static void main(String[] args) { double hours, minutes, length; double temp; int time = 2400; hours = time / 100; System.out.println("Hours are: " + hours);
I have two classes. time_runner is used for testing my code.
This is what I'm using to test my code:
class time_runner { public static void main(String str[]) throws IOException { Time time1 = new Time(14, 56); System.out.println("time1: " + time1); System.out.println("convert time1 to standard time: " + time1.convert()); System.out.println("time1: " + time1); System.out.print("increment time1 five times: "); time1.increment();
[code]....
The two constructors are "Time()", which is the default constructor that sets the time to 1200, and "Time(int h, int m)" Which says If h is between 1 and 23 inclusive, set the hour to h. Otherwise, set the hour to 0. If m is between 0 and 59 inclusive, set the minutes to m. Otherwise, set the minutes to 0. Those are my two constructors that I pretty much have down. The three methods however I'm having trouble with. The "String toString()" Returns the time as a String of length 4. The "String convert()" Returns the time as a String converted from military time to standard time. The "void increment()" Advances the time by one minute.
public class Time { private int hour; private int minute; public Time(int h, int m) { if(h > 1 && h < 23) hour = h;
Is it possible to define the same message driven bean as a listener to different queues?
The goal being to define different redelivery configuration for different kind of messages, but handle them all through a single deployment MDB for unity/entity purposes.
The other option is to have many MDBs targeted to the same source code.
