Very Best! Just to say, if you make N/1 flow shop interactive like other 2, it will be more helpful for person like me who has no background of the subject. I guess that was the reason of no appreciative comment yet for such a valuable asset and effort. I see your all videos and I am very big fan of you. God Bless You!

Hello, first I would like to thank and congratulate you for explaining and sharing this class, it was very helpful. I got a specific question: (at time 1:00:18 in the video) you mention simulation to pick a certain rule for scheduling in more complex scenarios. what software or programs can be used to simulate this choosing rule stage? Greetings from Mexico.

only one objection... It's true that is quite time consuming to calcute all different combinations/permutations but there is a shorter way out.What I did to resolve it, instead of using heuristics, was to precalculate the different combimations and store them in a database. Then, instead of calculating the optimum routing sequence "on the fly", you can just find it using a fast sql querry.The PC used was a 2006 model and needed about a day to give from (2!)^2 to (4!)^20 permutations using VB6.
