E2.2 For the airport problem described in Exercise E2.1 develop a three-
phasediscrete-event simulation of the problem.
a) Define the B-events and C-events for the problem.

will enter the runway
B3 Finish Activity Airplane X landed
B4 Finish Activity Airplane Y took off
E2.3 Following a discussion with the airport’s operations manager, more accurate
data on the take-off and landing of aeroplanes have come to light. Aeroplanes
are classified into two sizes: small and large. Small aeroplanes only require a
1.5-minute slot on the runway, while large aeroplanes require 2.5 minutes. It
is expected that 70% of aeroplanes will be small. The time between
aeroplanes arriving for landing is expected to be as follows:
Time between arrival for landing (minutes) Precentage
2–3 30%
3–4 35%
4–5 25%
5–6 10%
The time between arrivals for take-off is expected to be the same. Develop a
three-phase discrete-event simulation of the problem.
