What has been done:

Got algebraic waiting time formula (just in jupyter notebook)
Got code and document on blocking time formula
Restructured the whole repository
Refactored code in python modules
Use general vocabulary in documents
Generalise code variables and notations
Initial attempt on game theoretic formula

To be discussed:

[x] Change in notation
- Other patients (λ_ο) -> Class 1 individuals (λ_1)
- Ambulance patients (λ_a) -> Class 2 individuals (λ_2)
- Parking area -> Buffer centre
- Hospital -> Service area
[x] Game theory model
- Problem 1: As λ_2 increases blocking time might actually decrease (More individuals are lost)
  - Move 100% of ambulance arrivals
  - Include probability of being lost in system??
- Problem 2: Players payoffs: P(waiting time > target) > 0.95

To be done:

Algebraic waiting time formula
Closed-form blocking time formula
Game Theoretic model
Start writing literature review

Parking area -> Buffer centre

"Buffer" is problematic as it sometimes means something else. First and second waiting line/area is probably best.
