Raquel’s Landscaping Company has contracted forseveral landscaping jobs. Each job requires preparing the areas(identifying the locations and types of plants, preparing the soil,etc.) and then planting the trees, bushes, and shrubs. Th e expectedtime for each of the jobs is shown next. (a) Using FCFS (fi rst come, fi rst served), assume the jobsarrive in the order shown (R, then S, then T, etc.). Showthe beginning and ending time for each job.(b) Calculate the makespan, the mean job fl ow time, and theaverage number of jobs in the system.
A foreman has determined the expected processing times at a machine for a set of jobs and now wants to sequence them. Given the following information, do the following: Job Time Due Date Job (days) (days) a 4.5 10 6.0 17 5.2 12 d. 1.6 27 e 2.8 18 f 3.3 19 a-1. Determine the processing sequence using (1) MST, (2) SPT, (3) EDD, and (4) CR. Rule Sequence a-с-b-е-f-d MST d-e-f-a-c-b SPT a-c-b-e-f-d EDD a-c-b-f-e-d O CR a-2. For each sequence, calculate the average days late, the average flow time, and the average WIP. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round the final answers to 2 decimal places.) Rule Average lateness Average flow time Average WIP day (s) day (5) MST & EDD day(s) jobs day (s) jobs SPT day (s) day (s) jobs CR b. Which rule is best? SPT O has the lowest average flow time & average WIP, but EDD & MST have the lowest average days late.
