16. Consider the following data for three jobs processed in the boring machine center for Conway Manufacturing:
Setup Time Job (Minutes) Run Time/Unit (Minutes) Batch Size A 15 0.05 200 B 10 0.15 100 C 20 0.10 200 Queue data for the boring machine center:
Job Arrival Time Job Arrival Time Job Arrival Time A 8:24 B 8:40 B 9:12 B 8:28 C 8:42 C 9:14 C 8:31 C 8:44 A 9:18 A 8:34 A 8:57 B 9:21 B 8:39 A 9:03 B 9:31
a. If the boring machine center used a first-come/first-served rule to schedule jobs, how long would it take to process the queue? (Assume no other jobs arrive, all jobs in queue are for one batch each, and job B has just been completed.)
b. How long would it take to process all jobs in the queue, using the transfer batch logic?
