THE COST PERFORMANCE OF ELECTRONIC ARTICLE SURVEILLANCE SYSTEM WITH ESP-32 AND UC-15 FOR TOP MANAGEMENT JUDGMENT

This research aims to obtain the optimize results between performance and investment cost of the Electronic Article Surveillance System (EAS) with Digital Camera Technology (ESP-32) and Electronic Article Surveillance System (EAS) with UC-15 for the university top management decision making; what system is worth to deploy at the University. The evaluation parameters of the system are reliability and availability are used to evaluated with the investment cost on each system in order to find the right answer. The simulation times are 1 year, 5 years and 9.8 years to deployed as 3 different time constraint cases to be analyzed. The simulation will apply M/M/1 model to measure the reliability and accessibility on each system, the historical data of the number of power outage, power outage duration time, number of internet connection failure and duration time of internet connection failure are performed in time series to obtain mean time arrival rate which is injected to the simulation in order to match real world problem. The EZsim is used to conduct the simulation model to obtain the results. Finally, we found the answer to support top university management decision making.
