Why don't you give us your initial thoughts and ideas?

Then maybe we can assist you.

Have you done a google search at all? e.g: java +"box-plot" source

True to a certain degree, JavaScript *can* be used to rewrite the HTML contents (the DOM) in the browser.

Now how would you say access a back-end business process, update a monthly sales figure without an AJAX

Without importing them, you could use Class.forName(String className) to create an instance of the Class

The .classes will still have to be on the CLASSPATH, but this approach offers a lot of flexibility.

I studied statistics as a second major, and the "bank teller" problem is classic (Wrote solution in SPSS! lol)

If you feel that you are always in the slowest line, then check what's in their carts.
Is there a bagger, or does the teller have to stop ringing/scanning and do the bagging also?
Do people have their wallets ready, credit/debit card, or a ton of coupons and bags of change? ;)

There are a lot of factors and always the outcome for efficiency should be 1 line, n tellers, not n lines, n tellers.
