True or False? You can pre-assign a service time as an attribute before you actually get to the server that
you'll be using - correct answer ✔True
True or False? If you have Create module generating one-at-a-time customer arrivals, then it is not
possible to use a different Create module with 4-at-a-time customer arrivals. - correct answer ✔False
True or False? Fake customers can be used to schedule machine breakdowns, keep track of which time
period the simulation is currently in, and carry out other duties not associated with actual customers. -
correct answer ✔True
Which module/spreadsheet is NOT in the Advanced Process panel? - correct answer ✔Process Model
- The process model is in the Basic Process panel.
Advanced Process Panel
-Seize module
-Delay module
-Release module
-Expression spreadsheets
-Failure spreadsheets
Why are things like Seize, Delay, Release in multiple templates? - correct answer ✔The process module
does not allow us to use Seize, Delay, Release with sufficient generality.

Blocks template:
- Seize block
- Delay block
- Release block
- Alter block
- Queue block
True or False? The Queue block can connect up to the Seize module from the Advanced Process
template. - correct answer ✔False
Which kinds of sets are allowed? - correct answer ✔- Resource set
- Counter set
- Entity type set
- Entity picture set
True or False? It is possible for the resource Joey to be a member of three different resource sets -
correct answer ✔True
