HOW TO INSERT DIFFERENT EMPYRICAL DISTRIBUTIONS PER HOUR AND PER MONTH


Hello everyone, could you help me? I need to enter some inter arrival distributions in the source. Exactly, I need an empirical distribution for each hour of the day within a source, but also to switch to other distributions when I get to the next month, that is for 8 months. I don't know how to do this, maybe you could help me with an example please.

Hi @Ismael R3, I´m wondering if you´ve ever seen the date based source in Process Flow!? If you click an Arrival, you don´t only have to set a number of arrival tokens, but also can set a distribution fot the number of arrival tokens and the Arrival Spacing and the Offset.

The other thing I could imagine might help you, could be the Shedule Source in Process Flow. The Arrival Time in the Shedule does not have to be static in here.

You can try to execute a string in the interarrival time function edit field, that you parse into the following commands or methods:
