उत्तर

Machines A B C D E
M1 27 18 __ 20 21
M2 31 24 21 12 17
M3 20 17 20 __ 16
M4 21 28 20 16 27

Step 1 : We introduce a dummy machine Mwith time zero for each job and replace '-' by ∞

  A B C D E
M1 27 18 20 21
M2 31 24 21 12 17
M3 20 17 20 16
M4 21 28 20 16 27
M5 0 0 0 0 0

Step 2: Subtracting minimum element of each row from all its elememts 

As minimum number of lines = 4 ≠ order of the matrix.
. . Optimal solution is not reached.
Step 3 : We subtract minimum element (from uncovered elements) from each uncovered element and add to intersection elements.

Minimum number of lines= 5
= order of matrix.
:. Optimum solution is reached.
Step 4 : Making assignment at single zero of the row and of the column.

. . The optimal assignment of jobs to machines is

M1 → B       M2 → D     M3 → E      M4 → C     M5 → A

What is the Assignment problem?


Three jobs A, B and C one to be assigned to three machines U, V and W. The processing cost for each job machine combination is shown in the matrix given below. Determine the allocation that minimizes the overall processing cost.

    Machine
    U V W
Jobs A 17 25 31
B 10 25 16
C 12 14 11

(cost is in ₹ per unit)


Choose the correct alternative:

If number of sources is not equal to number of destinations, the assignment problem is called ______


Choose the correct alternative:

In an assignment problem involving four workers and three jobs, total number of assignments possible are


A car hire company has one car at each of five depots a, b, c, d and e. A customer in each of the fine towers A, B, C, D and E requires a car. The distance (in miles) between the depots (origins) and the towers(destinations) where the customers are given in the following distance matrix.

  a b c d e
A 160 130 175 190 200
B 135 120 130 160 175
C 140 110 155 170 185
D 50 50 80 80 110
E 55 35 70 80 105

How should the cars be assigned to the customers so as to minimize the distance travelled?


A job production unit has four jobs P, Q, R, and S which can be manufactured on each of the four machines I, II, III, and IV. The processing cost of each job for each machine is given in the following table:

Job Machines
(Processing cost in ₹)
I II III IV
P 31 25 33 29
Q 25 24 23 21
R 19 21 23 24
S 38 36 34 40

Find the optimal assignment to minimize the total processing cost.


A department store has four workers to pack goods. The times (in minutes) required for each worker to complete the packings per item sold is given below. How should the manager of the store assign the jobs to the workers, so as to minimize the total time of packing?

Workers Packing of
  Books Toys Crockery Cutlery
A 3 11 10 8
B 13 2 12 12
C 3 4 6 1
D 4 15 4 9

A plant manager has four subordinates and four tasks to perform. The subordinates differ in efficiency and task differ in their intrinsic difficulty. Estimates of the time subordinate would take to perform tasks are given in the following table:

  I II III IV
A 3 11 10 8
B 13 2 12 2
C 3 4 6 1
D 4 15 4 9

Complete the following activity to allocate tasks to subordinates to minimize total time.

Solution:

Step I: Subtract the smallest element of each row from every element of that row:

  I II III IV
A 0 8 7 5
B 11 0 10 0
C 2 3 5 0
D 0 11 0 5

Step II: Since all column minimums are zero, no need to subtract anything from columns.

Step III: Draw the minimum number of lines to cover all zeros.

  I II III IV
A 0 8 7 5
B 11 0 10 0
C 2 3 5 0
D 0 11 0 5

Since minimum number of lines = order of matrix, optimal solution has been reached

Optimal assignment is A →`square`  B →`square`

C →IV  D →`square`

Total minimum time = `square` hours.
