Barber Shop Simulation System with GUI Implementation

During our summer mathematical modeling project, we developed a barbershop simulation system implemented with a graphical user interface (GUI). The system architecture utilizes event-driven programming principles, where GUI components trigger corresponding simulation modules through callback functions.

This simulation system models barbershop operational workflows including customer appointment scheduling, barber allocation algorithms, and service record management. The GUI implementation employs dynamic visualization techniques to display real-time queue status and resource utilization statistics, making the system more intuitive and user-friendly. Core algorithms include time-based scheduling simulations and priority queue management for handling customer flow.

The simulation incorporates realistic operational parameters such as barbers' working hour constraints, service price calculation modules, and variable customer arrival patterns. These features are implemented through configurable parameter settings that allow dynamic adjustment of simulation scenarios. The pricing module specifically uses mathematical formulas to calculate services based on duration and complexity.

Through this simulation system, we can analyze barbershop operational workflows and conduct parameterized experiments by modifying configuration variables. This enables optimization of operational efficiency metrics and customer satisfaction indices through iterative simulation runs. The system's modular design allows for easy expansion of features such as multi-branch management or integration with point-of-sale systems.
