Hi (and happy new year to you all)
I am a new Oz developer involved in a complete reengineering of a job-shopscheduling application written in VBasic.
I'm already developing with IF-Prolog but not completely satisfied for:
1 - the hard task of express non trivial problems in prolog
2 - the absence of a start-stop-resume function
3 - the extremely difficult task of debugging and visualizing the costraints and vars database
4 - the absence of a distributed model (to be developed from scratch)
So before starting the hard work I need some suggestions or examples about:
1 - the method of interfacing with VBasic
2 - some non trivial scheduling models:
a - groups of non-equivalent machines (alternative) with different capacity
b - calendars of availability fo machines (breaks)
c - families of tasks with the same setup to be grouped to minimize the numb. of setups
Thanks in advance,
Adriano Volpones
