A genetic algorithm for the project assignment problem. In this paper we present a genetic algorithm as an aid for project assignment. The assignment problem illustrated concerns the allocation of projects to students.

- The Hungarian Method: The following algorithm applies the above theorem to a given n × n cost matrix to find an optimal assignment. Step 1. Subtract the smallest.
Students have to choose from a list of possible projects, indicating their preferred choices in advance. Inevitably, some of the more popular projects become ‘over- subscribed’ and assignment becomes a complex problem. The developed algorithm has compared well to an optimal integer programming approach.
84 THE HUNGARIAN METHOD FOR THE ASSIGNMENT PROBLEM 1, 2, and 3 3 and 4 This information can be presented effectively by a qualification matrix. 2 Abstract We propose a massively parallelizable algorithm for the classical assignment problem. The algorithm operates like an auction whereby unassigned persons bid. Formulation of Assignment Problem •Consider m workers to whom n jobs are assigned. •The cost of assigning worker i to job j is c ij. •Let x.
One clear advantage of the genetic algorithm is that, by its very nature, we are able to produce a number of feasible project assignments, thus facilitating discussion on the merits of various allocations and supporting multi- objective decision making.
