Conclusion
An analysis of the MS system operating in the given scientific-research institute has led to the conclusion that it can be mathematically described by a model such that the incoming stream into the system has a Poisson distribution function with exponential service-time distribution. It is evident from the results of the analysis of the system that even the small set of statistical data available in present-day practice for any metrological service is sufficient for the execution of calculations by which it is possible to control the processes of metrological servicing of instruments. It is also quite apparent that without a sufficiently thorough analysis and the application of mathematical statistical methods it is difficult to determine the optimal operating conditions for the MS system and to explore the reserves for better utilization of instruments, increasing the labor performance, improving the planning of fundamental criteria, and increasing the over-all cost effectiveness of the metrological service.
