Abstract
Conference Title: 2015 International Conference on Industrial Engineering and Operations Management (IEOM) Conference Start Date: 2015, March 3 Conference End Date: 2015, March 5 Conference Location: Dubai, United Arab Emirates This paper includes a simulation model for KSU Main Student Restaurant that built using Arena simulation software. We proposed some performance measures to be evaluated for our case study, which is the average waiting time in system and the average number of students in queues. The system faced a big pressure in the first hour of serving the lunch, a slightly pressure in the second hour and we can say there is no pressure on the system in the last hour. We used Arena simulation software to build a simulation model and after that, we analyzed the output from the simulation program results and applying "what if" analysis to produce a group of alternatives (scenarios). We ranked these alternatives to choose the best alternative to improve the efficiency of our system to get better service quality during rush hours. We used Arena Process Analyzer to rank and select the best scenario beside the D&D procedures for ranking and selecting the best alternative, which we will explain it latter in details. At the end, we describe some recommendations and future work as the last part of our study.
