Module 8
Advanced Scheduling and Sequencing
1
SPT vs. FIFO: Minimizing Photoshoot Completion Time
Compare the outcomes of using Shortest Processing Time (SPT) vs. First-In, First-Out (FIFO) rules for sequencing outfit changes to minimize average completion time during a photoshoot.
2
Sequencing with Johnson's Rule
Apply Johnson’s Rule to sequence a series of poses across two 'workstations' (e.g., 'styling' and 'shooting') to minimize the total time to complete the series (makespan).
3
Prioritizing Photoshoot Setups with Jackson's Rule
Apply Jackson's Rule for priority-based sequencing of photoshoot setups when different looks have varying levels of importance.
4
Branch and Bound for Photoshoot Scheduling
Solve a complex photoshoot scheduling problem as an integer program using the Branch and Bound algorithm, from problem formulation to solution interpretation.
