The process that we will be simulating is how an item goes from Target's stockroom/ backroom to the sales floor out to the customer in Target's new receiving model called "Drive Up." The beginning process will start out from the item being set in the stockroom, the employee will then have to become notified to push the item out onto the sales floor. After that first process of stockroom to sales floor we would then describe the procedure of the customer buying their item that is on the sales floor, which would be received by them in their car. The customer purchasing the item would start by buying the item on Target's app and pushing a notification to the employee. The employee would then set out the created order for the customer to receive at their car in the parking lot aka "Drive Up". The first arrival time data would be where the car pulls up to the parking lot. The service time data will be calculated once the target employee has grabbed the bag with the customer's items, and the service time will end once the bag was received by the customer.

Arriving customers place orders at an intercom station at the back of the parking lot and then drive to the service window to pay for and receive their orders. The following three service alternatives are being considered: A single-channel operation...
Exercise 4.30 Draw a collaboration diagram for the following business process at MetalWorks. A build-to-order (BTO) process, also known as make-to-order process, is an order-to-cash process wheretheproducts tobesoldaremanufactured onthebasisofaconfirmedpurchase order. Inotherwords,themanufacturer doesnotmaintainanyready-to-ship productsintheir stock. Instead, the products are manufactured on demand when the customer orders them. Thisapproach isusedinthecontext ofcustomizedproducts, suchasmetallurgicalproducts, where customers often submit orders for products with very specific requirements. We consider a BTO process at a company called MetalWorks. The process starts when MetalWorks receives apurchase order (PO)...
Q1.a) Based on the business rules, you are expected to construct

diagram should specify the complete (total) and disjoint
(mutuallyexclusive) constraints on the
generalization/specialization....

Have you ever wondered how many different ways there are to run a small restaurant? Delivering a sit down eating experience is a common process after all. In Japan it is fairly common to have a sushi restaurant that serves sushi on a conveyor belt! Interestingly, these sushi restaurants are typically very inexpensive. In Boston, there is usually at least one of these restaurants. For example, you could try Enso Sushi, but the sushi there is at least $2 per...
