Question

chedulin (1) Use priority scheduling rules (SPT, EDD, and LS) and Johnson's rule to determine the sequences for scheduling the seven jobs listed below. All jobs must follow the same sequence of machine first, and then polish. Draw Gantt charts showing the scheduling of these jobs. Determine the make-span (throughput time), average time per job, machine utilization, number of jobs late, average lateness, and maximum lateness of each sequence Time Required for Job, hours Work Center 10 Machine Polish 12 20 17 25 19 Due Time, hours 15

Explanation / Answer

Make-span = 65 hours

Average time per job = make-span/number of jobs = 9.29 hours

Number of jobs late = 5

Maximum lateness = 40 hours

Average lateness = total lateness/# of jobs late = 117/5 = 23.4 hours

b) According to Early Due Date (EDD) rule, sequence job first with earliest Due date and so no

c.

According to Johnson Rule, sequence the job first on machine 1 if the processing time is minimum on machine 1 otherwise on sequence last on machine 2. Repeat same for all the jobs.
