Question
Please identify a process for which you can observe or collect data. Data collected from a process are one way of "keeping score." An example is collecting the time it takes to serve a customer at a drive through window. Please collect between 10 and 30 sequential data points from this process. For most cases, collecting time data in terms of seconds rather than minutes is preferred. The differences between the values should represent nothing more than random variation. If during the data collection you observe a significant change in values, due to a possible change in conditions, don't reject the data points; simply make a note of it. Record the consecutive data points into a single column in Excel.
Explanation / Answer
Observations of passengers joining the 'Q' for buying tickets at a Metro station service window
A single service window where the passengers come in randomly where the each passenger's arrival is independent of each other though there is an average time of arrival.
The service rate is faster than the arrival rate and follows an exponential probability distribution.
