The problem is to simulate the operation of a factory with M=10 machines, where a minimum of N=6 working machines is required to keep the factory running. Machines can either break down or be repaired. Breakdown times follow a normal distribution (mean 300 time units, standard deviation 80), and repair times also follow a normal distribution (mean 100 time units, standard deviation 50).
The goal is to compute the time it takes for the number of working machines to fall below 6, causing the factory to stop production.
