Introduction to Extend
We recommend presenting this chapter by running Extend
6.0 directly, and interactively show how the program
works.
However, for your convenience, we have attached a
selection of the figures/screenshots from Chapter 7 of the
book as the basis for an in class presentation without
access to a computer with Extend installed.

This example shows a credit application rev iew process. One
application arriv es ev ery 10 minutes and is placed in an in box to
await processing. There are f our applications already in the in box
when the simulation starts. The rev iew process takes 14 minutes f or
each application.
