• SOLVING UNBALANCED ASSIGNMENT PROBLEM FOR USING REVISED ONES ASSIGNMENT METHOD

Abstract

The assignment problem is a special case of the transportation problem in which the objective is to assign the number of resources and the number of activities are equal at a minimum cost or maximum profit (ie, balanced assignment problem).If an assignment problem has not equal number of resources and activities, then it is called an unbalanced assignment problem. As we can solve only a balanced assignment problem, so we have to convert it into a balanced assignment problem by introducing dummy resource or activity with costs one.
