Question
Suppose that, instead of final exams, you were assigned a "project Friday", where each
of your courses gives you a different project at 8 AM. Unfortunately, you are trying to get
2 degrees in a total of 3 years, so you have a slight overload of 7 courses this semester
(!!!) Each project requires exactly 2 hours of work, and has a due time which is different.
The instructors will give you no credit if it is late by 1 second, or if you work less than
the required 2 hours. According to your subjective value rating, the value of turning each
project in on time is given below, along with the deadline for the project. :
Project: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
Value: 6 3 5 3 4 2 7
Deadline: 2pm 12noon 12noon 4pm 2pm 4pm 6pm
Find an optimal schedule for turning in your projects, starting work at 8 AM on Friday,
and determine the value achieved by that schedule.
Explanation / Answer
Optimal Schedule : (in Project Numbers ) 3 , 5 , 1 , 4 , 7
Total Value : 5 + 4 + 6 + 3 + 7 = 25
