Problem Statement: Hotel Booking System
You are working in a team which is developing a web application related to online room(s) booking in a chain of hotels. This would facilitate our existing customers, as well as potential new customers, in booking rooms and itinerary prior to their arrival. This would not only enable them to be more comfortable (because they would know that hotel room of their choice is already booked) but also increase the chances of maximizing hotel room bookings and minimizing the load on front desk receptions of our hotels.
It would require the customers to get registered by simply providing some basic information of themselves like First Name (any string of 10 alphabets), Last Name (any string of 10 alphabets), Passport Number (any alphanumeric string of 8 chars) and Age (age must be 18 or above).
During the room-booking process, the user is required to select the room type via dropdown i.e. Single (1-2), Double (2-3), Quad (4-6). Then user can search…

- Problem 4 WORKFORCE SCHEDULING Davis Instruments has two manufacturing plants located in Atlanta, Georgia. Product demand varies considerably from month to month, causing Davis extreme difficulty in workforce scheduling. Recently Davis started hiring temporary workers supplied by WorkForce Unlimited, a company that specializes in providing temporary employees for firms in the greater Atlanta area. WorkForce Unlimited offered to provide temporary employees under three contract options that differ in terms of the length of employment and the cost. The three options are summarized: Option Length of Employment One month $2000 2 Two months S4800 3 Three months $7500 The longer contract periods are more expensive because WorkForce Unlimited experiences greater difficulty finding temporary workers who are willing to commit to longer work assignments. Over the next six months, Davis projects the following needs for additional…arrow_forwardQuestion 27 Finally, passenger rail service comes to Ohio, connecting the six major cities.

A refiner in city Q serves four customers near city W and maintains consignment inventory (owned by the refiner) at each location. Currently, the refiner uses TL (truckload) transportation to deliver separately to each customer. Each truck costs $(759) plus $(309) per stop. The refiner is considering aggregating deliveries to city W on a single truck. The demand of the first customer is 75 tons a year, the demand of the second customer is 30 tons per year, and the demand of the third and fourth customers is 10 tons per year. The product cost is $8,000 per ton, and it uses a holding cost of (24)%. The truck capacity is 20 tons. a. What is the optimal delivery policy to each customer if the refiner ships separately to each of them? What is the annual total inventory-related cost? b.
