This simulation allows you to compare different approaches to influence flow, the Flow Times and the throughput of a work process.
By adjusting the sliders below you can
observe the work process without any work in process limitations (WIP Limits),
with process step specific WIP Limits* (work state WIP limits),
or you may want to see the impact of the Tameflow approach with Kanban Token and Replenishment Token
or see the impact of the Drum-Buffer-Rope** method.
* Well know in (agile) Kanban
** Known in the physical world of factory production
The "Tameflow approach" using Kanban Token and Replenishment Token as well as the Drum-Buffer-Rope method take oth the Constraint (the weakest link of the work process) into consideration when pulling in new work items into the delivery "system".
You can also simulate the effects of PUSH instead of PULL.
Feel free to play around and recognize the different effects of work scheduling methods.

The work flow itself
Look at the simulation as if you would look on a kanban board.
The simulation mimics a "typical" software delivery process.
From left to right you find the following ten process steps.

Success to the successful archetype represents two reinforcing structures which may be in a delicate balance though as soon as one gains a small advantage the resource allocation favors the more successful and the result is then rapidly skewed in the direction of the more successful.

Sistema de intervenção do Banco Central para regular a cotação do dólar. O sistema tem um loop que conduz naturalmente ao equilíbrio, isto é, a COTAÇÃO ATUAL tende, com o tempo, à COTAÇÃO DESEJADA pelo BC. Entretanto devido ao TEMPO DE REAÇÃO DO MERCADO, o sistema OSCILA mas ainda assim tende ao equilíbrio. Na verdade, o que faz a COTAÇÃO ATUAL oscilar, é a relação entre o TEMPO DE REAÇÃO DO MERCADO e o TEMPO DE AJUSTE da intervenção do BC. A frequência de oscilação é tanto maior quanto maior for a relação entre o TEMPO DE REAÇÃO DO MERCADO e o TEMPO DE AJUSTE do BC.
Cats can quickly adjust their position in free fall so that they land on all four paws. The simple model for this movement divides the cat into a rear and front section, whose moment of inertia can be changed by extending and retracting the legs. You can find an explanation of this in this video https://youtu.be/SMMgJ6GVMhE
