Part 2. Questions 3-5 Consider the jobs scheduled on two machines in the order of (A,B,C) where each job is started as soon as possible. The processing times for each job on eaclh machine are given in the table below. Assume time on machine #1 is represented with "(I)', and on machine #2 with "(2)". Job Machine#1 Time Machine#2 Time Question 3. Which Gantt chart is correct for the schedule (A,B,C)?

None of the aboveExplanation / Answer
Q3: option A, gantt chart A
Since we can start each job as soon as possible, as soon as machine 1 is free, we start next job on machine 1.
So, time 1,2 is used by machine jobA in machine 1, At time 3, job A machine 2 starts and also we can start job B machine 1. time 3,4,5 is job B machine 1, At time 6 we start job B machine 2, also job C machine 1. then as soon as machine 2 is free we start job C machine 2 and finish the schedule.
Q4) option C 10
as we can see in gantt chart A above, that Job C is finished at time 10, hence total time for schedule is 10.
Q5) Option B, CBA
According to johnson rule, we look for lowest time, which is 1 in job C machine1, and job A machine 2. SInce we use machine 1 first, hence JOb C goes to be 1st job, and Job A becomes last. The job B becomes 2nd job.
Hence CBA
