Loading Dock Scheduling: Doors, Appointments and Truck Waiting in 3D

Run a multi-door loading dock: random trucks arrive, queue in the yard and unload at the doors. Change the arrival rate, number of doors, unloading-time variability and walk-in versus appointment arrivals, and compare the simulated wait with the Allen-Cunneen M/G/c formula and the demurrage cost.
