A production system consists of four serial automatic workstations

A production system consists of four serial automatic workstations. All transfer times are assumed to be zero and all processing times are constant. There are two types of failures: major and jams. The data for this system are given in the table below (all times are in minutes). Use exponential distributions for the uptimes and uniform distributions for repair times (for instance, repairing jams at Workstation 3 is UNIF(2.8, 4.2)). Run your simulation for 10,000 minutes to determine the percent of time each resource spends in the failure state and the ending status of each workstation queue.

Hint
Business"In statistics and probability theory, an exponential distribution is a probability distribution of time between events. This prevails upon a Poisson point process whereby events occur independently and continuously at a rate that is constantly average. It is a specific case of gamma distribution."...
