Rescom TP instructions
De MARMOTE
Instuctions for the Lab on Markov chain modeling and MDP analysis, at the RESCOM2019 summer school
Objective
The goals of the Lab session is
- program the model of a discrete-time queue with impatience, batch size and finite capacity, using the marmoteCore library;
- program the same model with a control of admission in service, with the marmoteMDP library;
- compute the optimal service policy in this queue.
Steps
1. Preparation
The first step is to have the library installed on your computer. Two possibilities:
- using a virtual machine with virtualbox
- download VM + instructions from this page
- copy it from USB drive, available at the conference.
- using the compiled library (linux only)
- tarball + instructions from marmoteCore's site
The instructions with virtualbox are then:
- install the virtualbox software from its web site
- launch virtualbox
- click on "Machine > Add"
- enter the location of the virtual machine that has been downloaded
