Project 2 for CX 4230
A discrete event simulator written in Python 3.6 to model the delivery of packages from a distribution center.
engine.py has the core simulation engine code
event_handler.py has the event handlers for various events
Execution
main.py has the code for executing the simulator.
It can be run using python main.py.
Parameters can be specified for the following:
| Flag | Parameter | Default Value |
|---|---|---|
-v |
Number of vehicles | 4 |
-w |
Number of workers | 10 |
-p |
Total number of packages | 1000 |
If a flag is not given or an improper value was passed in, the default value is used.
Example execution using parameters:
python main.py -p 1000 -v 4 -w 10
Example output:
Running simulation with 1000 packages, 10 workers, 4 vehicles.
Processed 1000 packages:
Average package delivery time: 4250.80 minutes.
10 workers were idle for an average of 2869.30 minutes.
Note that output differs on each run due to random variables in the simulation.
