Title: Elapsed time
Post by: TAHIR on April 14, 2024, 06:00:44 PM
On what factors max elapsed time depends upon? Is number of activities and also laptop processing speed ?

A timetable have 350 activities n first attempt take just 2.5 minutes. After a  moment in 2nd attempt it takes above 10 minutes, but timetable not successfully generated.( All constraints same).

After how many minutes it is realized that the timetable is no longer possible?

If you input the same starting random seed (Settings > Advanced), the generation will be the same, depending only on computer and file. You can compare computer power by setting the same random seed.

If the random seed is different, the generation will be semi-randomized.

FET will try forever to solve.
