B) What is the average completion (flow) time?

To compute the average completion (flow) time, first calculate the flow time for each job. The flow time is the time between the release of a job to a work center until the job is finished (round your responses to the nearest whole number).

calculate the total flow time for the sequence developed using the EDD rule summarizing all the computed flow times.

Calculate the average completion (flow) time for the sequence developed using the EDD rule.

c) What is the average job lateness?

To compute the average job lateness, first calculate the job latenesses for each job. Computing the lateness of a particular job involves assumptions about the start time during the day and the timing of delivering a completed job. Assuming that today is a work day, work has not yet begun today, and a job finished by the end of a day can be delivered to the customer that same day, the job lateness is calculated as follows:

Calculate the job lateness for the job C using the EDD rule.

Similarly, calculate the job lateness for each job (round your responses to the nearest whole number).

Calculate the average job lateness for the sequence developed using the EDD rule.

d) What is the average number of jobs in the system?

Calculate the average number of jobs in the system for the sequence developed using the EDD rule.

Courtney is a programmer receiving requests each week to analyze a large data base. Five jobs were on her desk Monday morning, and she must decide in what order to write the code. Assume that all jobs arrived today (day 1 and hour 1), in the order shown below. Courtney has assigned the number of hours required to do the coding as noted. Note that Courtney works an 8-hour day and today is a work day. DURATION (HOURS REQUIRED) 8 7 1 18 6 a) Sequence the jobs according to EDD. According to the EDD rule, the sequence of jobs should be JOB A ABCDF E DUE DATE (HOURS HENCE) 22 14 16 32 6
