Which deployment meets this school’s constraints?
Supply a workload trace, privacy boundary and budget. Compare simulated and measured timings without treating them as equivalent.
Simulate a single FIFO worker; start each job after both arrival and the previous completion. Report wait, finish, cost and privacy routing.
Cut these cards apart. Use the original example first, then let a partner supply a changed case. Keep sealed/final cards with the teacher until the learner commits a rule.

My prediction and reason:
A simulator does not measure actual hardware. Add measured traces before making procurement claims.
