Using a Resource at an Activity

In this solution, an activity requires the use of a resource to perform the activity. (Note: if a resource is dedicated to a single activity, it is generally unnecessary to model the resource explicitly. The capacity of the activity implicitly represents the number of resources working there.) For example: An operator runs a punch press, but is sometimes needed to perform other tasks to be defined elsewhere in the model. The punch press has a cycle time of 1.2 minutes.
