Do each of the following:
Draw the precedence diagram
Determine the minimum cycle time the maximum cycle time and the calculated cycle time.
Determine the minimum number of stations needed
Assign tasks to workstations on the basis of greatest number of following tasks. Use longest processing time as a tiebreaker. If ties still exist assume indifference in choice.
Compute the percentage of idle time for the assignments in part d
