103) Mondo has never heard of linear programming and you don't have your laptop handy. Provide him with a "best case" total fabulosity number

The greatest possible value is 45, since there are 5 scores that will be chosen and the scores range from 1 to 9.

The model has r + c or 10 constraints, not counting the nonnegativity constraint. The row constraints could be summarized as "Each model must wear one outfit," and the column constraints can be summarized as "Each outfit must be worn by a model." Individually, the constraints would be articulated as: Zoe must wear one outfit. Yvette must wear one outfit. Xena must wear one outfit. Whisper must wear one outfit. Vajay must wear one outfit. The gown must be worn. The sport outfit must be worn. The couture must be worn. The avant-garde must be worn. The prêt-à-porter outfit must be worn.

113) What special case of linear programming should be used to model this situation?

The scenario gives the appearance that it is an assignment model waiting to happen up until the point that six sections of Introduction to Operations are needed and the professors are responsible for two to three sections each. The easiest way to model this is by declaring it a transportation model with the six sections of Introduction to Operations as traveling to the same destination. However, if each of those six sections is a node unto itself, and if each professor is separated into three possible sources of teaching, then this would fit the assignment model. The problem with solving the scenario with an assignment model is that the number of decision variables increases from 24 to 132 and the constraints increase from 10 to 23.

Using the scheme Professor:Subject for decision variables, e.g. SI is Saba teaches Intro to Ops, Max Z = 3SI + 10SP + 12SQ + 16SC + 12SL + 7SM + 4GI + 19GP + 2GQ + 10GC + 8GL + 18GM + 5TI + 11TP + 4TQ + 14TC + 14TL + 3TM + 4DI + 11DP + 4DQ + 15DC + 17DL + 15DM SI + SP + SQ + SC + SL + SM = 3 GI + GP + GQ + GC + GL + GM = 3 TI + TP + TQ + TC + TL + TM = 3 DI + DP + DQ + DC + DL + DM = 3 SI + GI + TI + DI ≥ 6 SP + GP + TP + DP = 1 SQ + GQ + TQ+ DQ = 1 SC + GC + TC + DC = 1 SL + GL + TL+ DL = 1 SM + GM + TM + DM = 1 The difference between this model and the benevolent chair model is that this is formulated to maximize prep time and assigns each professor a three-course load. The benevolent chair model minimizes prep time and allows for a two-course teaching load.

112) The department chair looks at past course evaluations and realizes that if she wants to attract students to the Operations and Supply Chain major, it would be best if Geoff were never assigned to teach that class. How can her standard model be modified to ensure that Geoff cannot scare away students from the major?

Using the scheme Professor:Subject for decision variables, e.g. SI is Saba teaches Intro to Ops, these additions should be made to the base model. SI + TI + DI ≥ 6 GI = 0 The difference between this model and the base is that this assigns Geoff to no sections of Introduction to Operations, while maintaining he number of sections at six or greater among the other three faculty members. This model's objective is still to minimize the number of prep hours. As luck would have it, this model performs as well as the base model, which didn't have any sections of Intro assigned to Geoff.

110) Take note of the phrase in the scenario that reads "Naturally, every professor in the department had his own pet course..." Provide an example of a constraint that makes sure a professor gets to teach his favorite course.

Using the scheme Professor:Subject for decision variables, e.g. SI is Saba teaches Intro to Ops, we can ensure that Saba is assigned to Intro to Operations by entering the constraint: SI ≥ 2 along with the other constraints in the model. If Geoff likes Logistics, then GL = 1 would assign that professor the logistics class.

Semester Prep The department chair reviewed last year's schedule, the degree requirements for the ever popular Operations and Supply Chain major, and the emails that had drifted into her mailbox over the last week. Naturally, every professor in the department had his own pet course and wanted to maintain control of it while avoiding 8 a.m. classes at all costs. In an effort to placate the senior faculty members of the department, the chair sent an email asking them to supply the prep time for each of the classes they were qualified to teach, promising to assign them the least taxing schedule possible. Each of her department members had to teach at least two courses, but no more than three. The elective courses, Project Management, Quality Management, Control and Planning, Logistics, and Management Science each had to be offered once and the department needed to offer at least six sections of the Introduction to Operations class. The prep times each professor estimated for each course appear in the table below. (BETTER CHART IN DOCUMENT) Intro to Ops Project Mgt Quality Mgt Control Logistics Mgt Science Saba 3 10 12 16 12 7 Geoff 4 19 2 10 8 18 Tim 5 11 4 14 14 3 David 4 11 4 15 17 15 108) What is an appropriate objective function for this scenario?

Using the scheme Professor:Subject for decision variables, e.g. SI is Saba teaches Intro to Ops: Min Z = 3SI + 10SP + 12SQ + 16SC + 12SL + 7SM + 4GI + 19GP + 2GQ + 10GC + 8GL + 18GM + 5TI + 11TP + 4TQ + 14TC + 14TL + 3TM + 4DI + 11DP + 4DQ + 15DC + 17DL + 15DM

109) Write the model that is suitable for this scenario.

Using the scheme Professor:Subject for decision variables, e.g. SI is Saba teaches Intro to Ops: Min Z = 3SI + 10SP + 12SQ + 16SC + 12SL + 7SM + 4GI + 19GP + 2GQ + 10GC + 8GL + 18GM + 5TI + 11TP + 4TQ + 14TC + 14TL + 3TM + 4DI + 11DP + 4DQ + 15DC + 17DL + 15DM SI + SP + SQ + SC + SL + SM ≤ 3 SI + SP + SQ + SC + SL + SM ≥ 2 GI + GP + GQ + GC + GL + GM ≤ 3 GI + GP + GQ + GC + GL + GM ≥ 2 TI + TP + TQ + TC + TL + TM ≤ 3 TI + TP + TQ + TC + TL + TM ≥ 2 DI + DP + DQ + DC + DL + DM ≤ 3 DI + DP + DQ + DC + DL + DM ≥ 2 SI + GI + TI + DI ≥ 6 SP + GP + TP + DP = 1 SQ + GQ + TQ+ DQ = 1 SC + GC + TC + DC = 1 SL + GL + TL+ DL = 1 SM + GM + TM + DM = 1

In setting up the an intermediate (transshipment) node constraint, assume that there are three sources, two intermediate nodes, and two destinations, and travel is possible between all sources and the intermediate nodes and between all intermediate nodes and all destinations for a given transshipment problem. In addition, assume that no travel is possible between source nodes, between intermediate nodes, and between destination nodes, and no direct travel from source nodes to destination nodes. Let the source nodes be labeled as 1, 2, 3, the intermediate nodes be labeled as 4 and 5, and the destination nodes be labeled as 6 and 7. 92) State the constraint for intermediate node 4.

X14 + X24 + X34 - X46 - X47 = 0

97) What is the constraint for El Paso for the Mantastic problem?

X37 + X47 = 610

104) You formulate this as an assignment model and review the Zoe section of the sensitivity analysis with Mondo. Provide him with an interpretation. (BETTER CHART IN DOCUMENT) Cell Name Final Value Reduced Cost Objective Coefficient Allowable Increase Allowable Decrease $J$13 Zoe Gown 1 0 9 1E+30 3 $K$13 Zoe Sport 0 0 9 3 2 $L$13 Zoe Leisure 0 -2 4 2 1E+30 $M$13 Zoe Cocktail 0 -5 4 5 1E+30 $N$13 Zoe Pret a Porter 0 -8 2 8 1E+30

Zoe is assigned to wear the gown and will add 9 points to the overall fabulosity score. Even if Zoe's rating in the gown was up to 3 points lower, she would still be assigned to wear the gown. The overall score would be lower, but this would still be her assignment. Normally, the reduced cost entries speak to the change in objective coefficients before the assignment changes. As the model was presented, the coefficient for Zoe in the Leisure outfit was 4, with a reduced cost of -2, so a change in excess of 4 to 4- -2 = 6 would cause the Leisure outfit assignment to be optimal. As this is a balanced model, we cannot make that statement.

Mondo's Runway Show Mondo Guerra is matching his models with his latest collection for Fashion Week. He has five models, ranging from 5'10" to 5'10.5" and size 0 to size 1. His five latest designs run the gamut from prêt-à-porter to an evening gown and he'd like to make sure each outfit looks as good as possible by having it worn on the runway by the right model. After an anxious month of sewing, he has each model try on each outfit and he assigns a fabulosity score to each combination as indicated in the table.

89) Awards committees need to be formed to review potential award recipients. In the past, three people have been assigned to review each applicant. The only stipulation is that a reviewer cannot be assigned to an applicant if the applicant is a co-worker. The matrix below shows 9 reviewers, 3 candidates, and a matrix. If an entry in the matrix contains an "X," then that specific reviewer is ineligible to review an applicant's material. For example, reviewer 1 cannot review materials submitted by candidate B. It is possible that some reviewers may not receive an assignment. (BETTER CHART IN DOCUMENT) Applicant Reviewer A B C 1 X 2 X 3 X 4 5 X 6 X 7 X 8 X 9 X Formulate this as an assignment problem in which two reviewers are assigned to review each applicant's material.
