उत्तर

Suppose that we have ‘m1 jobs to be performed on ‘n’ machines.

The cost of assigning each job to each machine is Cij (i = 1, 2, … n and j = 1, 2, … , n).

Our objective is to assign the different jobs to the different machines (one job per machine) to minimize the overall cost.

This is known as assignment problem.
