Abstract

This chapter describes models for the supply of workstation components and workstation assembly. Section 3.1 reviews the simulation approach used. Section 3.2 presents the discrete event simulation supply models of microprocessors and DRAMs, section 3.3 magnetic hard disks, section 3.4 color CRT displays, section 3.5 UNIX operating systems, and section 3.6 the linear workstation assembly process model. Several components attributes and trends will be presented, and the definitions, terminology, and concepts detailed in Chapter 2 will be referred to as this chapter progresses.
