Abstract
The simulation model for automated library stacks is designed for computer simulation. It is intended to analyse circulation service, if automated retrieval system is induced to library stacks.
Arrival rate of users and arrival numbers of users are input data of this model. The number of stacker cranes is variable parameter.
Mean queue length of users, max queue length of users, mean waiting time of users, max waiting time of users and so on are output data of this model.
The effectiveness and efficiency of automated retrieval system is estimated by these output data.
