Il problema del negozio di lavoro

Un problema comune di pianificazione è quello delle offerte di lavoro, in cui vengono assegnati più lavori vengono elaborati su più computer.

Ogni job consiste in una sequenza di attività, che devono essere eseguite in un e ogni attività deve essere elaborata su una macchina specifica. Ad esempio, il lavoro potrebbe essere la produzione di un singolo articolo di consumo, un'automobile. Il problema è pianificare le attività sulle macchine in modo da ridurre al minimo length della pianificazione: il tempo necessario per il completamento di tutti i job.

Esistono diversi vincoli per il problema dell'officina:

  • Non è possibile avviare attività per un job finché l'attività precedente per quel job non è completata.
  • Una macchina può lavorare a un'unica attività alla volta.
  • Una volta avviata, un'attività deve essere eseguita fino al completamento.

Problema di esempio

Di seguito è riportato un semplice esempio di problema relativo all'officina, in cui ogni attività è etichettata da una coppia di numeri (m, p), dove m è il numero della macchina per cui deve essere elaborata su e p è il tempo di elaborazione dell'attività: per la quantità di tempo richiesta. (La numerazione di job e macchine inizia da 0.)

  • job 0 = [(0; 3), (1, 2), (2, 2)]
  • job 1 = [(0; 2), (2; 1), (1, 4)]
  • lavoro 2 = [(1, 4), (2, 3)]

Nell'esempio, il job 0 ha tre attività. Il primo, (0, 3), deve essere elaborato sulla macchina 0 in 3 unità di tempo. Il secondo, (1, 2), deve essere elaborato macchina 1 in 2 unità di tempo e così via. In tutto, ci sono otto attività.

Una soluzione al problema

Una soluzione al problema dell'officina è l'assegnazione di un'ora di inizio per ogni che soddisfa i vincoli indicati sopra. Il diagramma seguente mostra una possibile soluzione al problema: cronologia della pianificazione non ottimale delle offerte di lavoro

Puoi controllare che le attività per ogni lavoro siano pianificate in un orario non sovrapposto intervalli, nell'ordine indicato dal problema.

La lunghezza di questa soluzione è 12, che è la prima volta in cui tutti e tre i job sono completate. Tuttavia, come vedrai di seguito, questa non è la soluzione ottimale per risolvere il problema.

Variabili e vincoli per il problema

Questa sezione descrive come impostare le variabili e i vincoli per problema. Innanzitutto, consenti a task(i, j) di indicare la j-esima attività nella sequenza per il job i. Per ad esempio task(0, 2) indica la seconda attività per il job 0, che corrisponde la coppia (1, 2) nella descrizione del problema.

Ora definisci ti, j come ora di inizio per task(i, j). La ti, j sono le variabili nel problema dell'offerta di lavoro. Trova un soluzione comporta la determinazione dei valori per queste variabili che soddisfano i requisito del problema.

Esistono due tipi di vincoli per il problema relativo alle offerte di lavoro:

  • Vincoli di precedenza: derivano dalla condizione che per qualsiasi due attività consecutive nello stesso job, la prima deve essere completata prima per avviare il deployment. Ad esempio, task(0, 2) e task(0, 3) sono di attività consecutive per il job 0. Poiché il tempo di elaborazione di task(0, 2) è 2, l'ora di inizio per Il valore task(0, 3) deve essere successivo di almeno 2 unità di tempo all'ora di inizio per l'attività 2. (Forse l'attività 2 è dipingere una porta e servono due ore prima che il colore dry.) Di conseguenza, ottieni il seguente vincolo:
    • t0, 2 + 2 <= t0, 3
  • Nessun vincolo di sovrapposizione: deriva dalla limitazione che una non può lavorare su due attività contemporaneamente. Ad esempio, l'attività(0, 2) e l'attività(2, 1) vengono entrambe elaborate sulla macchina 1. Poiché i loro tempi di elaborazione sono rispettivamente 2 e 4, uno dei seguenti i vincoli devono contenere:
    • t0, 2 + 2 <= t2, 1 (se task(0, 2) è pianificato prima del giorno task(2, 1)) o
    • t2, 1 + 4 <= t0, 2 (se task(2, 1) è pianificato prima del giorno task(0, 2)).

Obiettivo del problema

L'obiettivo del problema dell'officina è ridurre al minimo la makespan: periodo di tempo dalla prima ora di inizio dei job all'ultima ora di fine.

Definisci le variabili

Il seguente codice definisce le variabili nel problema.

}

Per ogni job e attività, il programma utilizza il metodo NewIntVar/new_int_var/newIntVar metodo per creare le variabili:

  • start_var: ora di inizio dell'attività.
  • end_var: ora di fine dell'attività.

Il limite superiore per start_var e end_var è horizon, la somma dei valori tempi di elaborazione per tutte le attività in tutti i job. horizon è sufficientemente grande per completare tutte le attività per il seguente motivo: se pianifichi le attività a intervalli di tempo non sovrapposti (un approccio non ottimale soluzione), la durata totale della pianificazione è esattamente horizon. Quindi, la durata della soluzione ottimale non può essere superiore a horizon.

Inoltre, il programma utilizza NewIntervalVar/new_interval_var/newIntervalVar per creare una variabile intervallo, il cui valore è un tempo variabile per l'attività. Gli input per questo metodo sono:

  • L'ora di inizio dell'attività.
  • La durata dell'intervallo di tempo per l'attività.
  • L'ora di fine dell'attività.
  • Il nome della variabile intervallo.

In qualsiasi soluzione, end_var meno start_var deve essere uguale a duration.

Definisci i vincoli

Il seguente codice definisce i vincoli per il problema.

Python

# Create and add disjunctive constraints.
for machine in all_machines:
    model.add_no_overlap(machine_to_intervals[machine])

# Precedences inside a job.
for job_id, job in enumerate(jobs_data):
    for task_id in range(len(job) - 1):
        model.add(
            all_tasks[job_id, task_id + 1].start >= all_tasks[job_id, task_id].end
        )

C++

// Create and add disjunctive constraints.
for (const auto machine : all_machines) {
  cp_model.AddNoOverlap(machine_to_intervals[machine]);
}

// Precedences inside a job.
for (int job_id = 0; job_id < jobs_data.size(); ++job_id) {
  const auto& job = jobs_data[job_id];
  for (int task_id = 0; task_id < job.size() - 1; ++task_id) {
    TaskID key = std::make_tuple(job_id, task_id);
    TaskID next_key = std::make_tuple(job_id, task_id + 1);
    cp_model.AddGreaterOrEqual(all_tasks[next_key].start, all_tasks[key].end);
  }
}

Java

// Create and add disjunctive constraints.
for (int machine : allMachines) {
  List<IntervalVar> list = machineToIntervals.get(machine);
  model.addNoOverlap(list);
}

// Precedences inside a job.
for (int jobID = 0; jobID < allJobs.size(); ++jobID) {
  List<Task> job = allJobs.get(jobID);
  for (int taskID = 0; taskID < job.size() - 1; ++taskID) {
    List<Integer> prevKey = Arrays.asList(jobID, taskID);
    List<Integer> nextKey = Arrays.asList(jobID, taskID + 1);
    model.addGreaterOrEqual(allTasks.get(nextKey).start, allTasks.get(prevKey).end);
  }
}

C#

// Create and add disjunctive constraints.
foreach (int machine in allMachines)
{
    model.AddNoOverlap(machineToIntervals[machine]);
}

// Precedences inside a job.
for (int jobID = 0; jobID < allJobs.Count(); ++jobID)
{
    var job = allJobs[jobID];
    for (int taskID = 0; taskID < job.Count() - 1; ++taskID)
    {
        var key = Tuple.Create(jobID, taskID);
        var nextKey = Tuple.Create(jobID, taskID + 1);
        model.Add(allTasks[nextKey].Item1 >= allTasks[key].Item2);
    }
}

Il programma utilizza il metodo AddNoOverlap/add_no_overlap/addNoOverlap del modello per creare vincoli di non sovrapposizione, che impediscono alle attività che la stessa macchina si sovrapponga nel tempo.

In seguito, il programma aggiunge i vincoli di precedenza, le attività consecutive per lo stesso job non si sovrappongano nel tempo. Per ogni job a ogni attività del job, viene aggiunto un vincolo lineare per specificare di un'attività prima dell'ora di inizio della successiva nel job.

Definisci l'obiettivo

Il seguente codice definisce l'obiettivo del problema.

Python

# Makespan objective.
obj_var = model.new_int_var(0, horizon, "makespan")
model.add_max_equality(
    obj_var,
    [all_tasks[job_id, len(job) - 1].end for job_id, job in enumerate(jobs_data)],
)
model.minimize(obj_var)

C++

// Makespan objective.
IntVar obj_var = cp_model.NewIntVar({0, horizon}).WithName("makespan");

std::vector<IntVar> ends;
for (int job_id = 0; job_id < jobs_data.size(); ++job_id) {
  const auto& job = jobs_data[job_id];
  TaskID key = std::make_tuple(job_id, job.size() - 1);
  ends.push_back(all_tasks[key].end);
}
cp_model.AddMaxEquality(obj_var, ends);
cp_model.Minimize(obj_var);

Java

// Makespan objective.
IntVar objVar = model.newIntVar(0, horizon, "makespan");
List<IntVar> ends = new ArrayList<>();
for (int jobID = 0; jobID < allJobs.size(); ++jobID) {
  List<Task> job = allJobs.get(jobID);
  List<Integer> key = Arrays.asList(jobID, job.size() - 1);
  ends.add(allTasks.get(key).end);
}
model.addMaxEquality(objVar, ends);
model.minimize(objVar);

C#

// Makespan objective.
IntVar objVar = model.NewIntVar(0, horizon, "makespan");

List<IntVar> ends = new List<IntVar>();
for (int jobID = 0; jobID < allJobs.Count(); ++jobID)
{
    var job = allJobs[jobID];
    var key = Tuple.Create(jobID, job.Count() - 1);
    ends.Add(allTasks[key].Item2);
}
model.AddMaxEquality(objVar, ends);
model.Minimize(objVar);

Questo codice crea una variabile obiettivo e la vincola a essere il massimo la fine di tutti i job.

Richiama il risolutore

Il seguente codice chiama il risolutore.

Python

solver = cp_model.CpSolver()
status = solver.solve(model)

C++

const CpSolverResponse response = Solve(cp_model.Build());

Java

La pianificazione ottimale è mostrata di seguito:

 Optimal Schedule Length: 11
Machine 0: job_0_0   job_1_0
           [0,3]     [3,5]
Machine 1: job_2_0   job_0_1   job_1_2
           [0,4]     [4,6]     [7,11]
Machine 2: job_1_1   job_0_2   job_2_1
           [5,6]     [6,8]     [8,11]

I lettori con occhi d'aquila che esaminano la macchina 1 potrebbero chiedersi perché il job_1_2 sia stato programmato alle tempo 7 anziché 6. Entrambe sono soluzioni valide, ma ricorda: lo scopo è ridurre al minimo il trucco. Spostare job_1_2 prima non ridurrebbe il valore span , quindi le due soluzioni sono uguali dal punto di vista del risolutore.
