Abstract: A simulation based project is designed which can be practically implemented in a workspace (in this case, a barber shop). The design algorithm provides the user different time varying features such as number of people arrival, number of people being served, number of people waiting at the queue etc depending upon input criteria and system capability. The project is actually helpful for a modern barber shop in which a close inspection is needed. The owner or the manager of the shop can easily have a thorough but precise idea about the performance of the shop. At the same time he/she can easily decide to modify the arrangement and capability of the shop.
