Step-by-step answer
Core 75–90 min7 stepsSimulate the month-end rush
A discrete-event simulation of the last Friday of the month, about 91,000 synthetic model steps in four classes, run under FIFO, strict priority, priority with aging, and aging with admission control and a batch pool. FIFO reproduces the lesson's 8,400-step backlog and 39-minute urgent wait; priority moves the whole backlog onto deferrable work; and sending deferrable work to batches removes the backlog altogether.
