If the start time of the day is fixed, end time of the day is fixed, and all events are fixed, then what degree of freedom is left? It seems like everything is determined and there is nothing left to adjust. | |
| May 12, 2021 at 18:36 | comment | added | D.W.♦ | I still don't understand what an "event" is. Is it a desired start time and a desired length? So "matching" means that you have scheduled it at a time that is close to its desired times? Is it a desired length, and you are free to schedule it at any time? It would help to formalize what the inputs are and what the objective function is more clearly. Rather than clarifying in the comments, we'd prefer that you edit the question. No need to leave an "EDIT"; we have revision history, so we'd prefer you make it read well for someone who encounters the question for the first time. | |
| May 12, 2021 at 13:19 | comment | added | Aaron Casey | Thanks for your help! Sorry I forgot to respond sooner. I decided to represent a day as a boolean array, and the objective function as the SSE of each sprint/break from the ideal length. | |
| Mar 19, 2021 at 1:37 | comment | added | D.W.♦ | Thanks for the improvements! I suspect you'll still need to identify an objective function to measure how close a proposed schedule is to satisfactory, before you can find an optimization algorithm to solve this task. | |
