Chapter 5Transportation, Assignment; and Network Models

The Southern Rail Company ships coal by rail from three coal mines to meet the demand requirementsof four coal depots. The following table shows the distances from the mines to the various depots and the availabilities and requirements for coal. Determine the best shipment of coal cars to minimize the total miles traveled by the cars. = 3100 miles

Chapter 6. Integer Programming

A hospital is

planning an $8 million addition to its existing facility. The architect has

been asked toconsider the following design parameters: (1) There

should be at least 10 and no more than 20 intensive care unit (ICU) rooms; (2)

there should be at least 10 and no more than 20 cardiac care unit (CCU)rooms; (3) there should be no more than 50

double rooms; (4) there should be at least 35 single rooms; and (5) all patient rooms should fit inside the

allotted 40,000-square-foot space (not including hallways). The

following table summarizes the relevant room data

Chapter 7. Project

Management

A plant

engineering group needs to set up an assembly line to produce a new product.

The table included describes the relationships between the activities that need

to be completed for this product to be manufactured.

(a)

Develop a project network for this problem.

(b)

Determine the expected duration and variance for each

activity.

(c)

Determine the EST, EFT, LST, LFT,and

slack for each activity. Also determine the total project completiontime and the critical

path(s).

(d)

Determine the probability that the project will be completed

in less than 34 days.

(e)

Determine the probability that the project will take more

than 29 days.
