Automating the manual process of scheduling jobs in prepared plans for a pharmaceutical company

The study looks at scheduling jobs for a pharmaceutical company into prepared plans. Comparison is made between three methods to assign the jobs to a prepared plan, optimization, a greedy algorithm and the current manual assignment in use today at the pharmaceutical company. The comparison was based on real data from the pharmaceutical company. The goal is to see if the process can be automated. Results show that both optimization and a greedy algorithm can be used to solve this problem automatically.
