"""Exact task scheduler with dependency constraints.
|
||||
|
||||
Given a set of tasks, each with a duration and a set of predecessor task ids,
|
||||
compute the minimum makespan (completion time of the last task) under
|
||||
unlimited parallelism subject to precedence constraints. Solved exactly by
|
||||
branch-and-bound over feasible "ready" sets; cross-checked against a
|
||||
brute-force enumeration of all topological orders for small inputs.
|
||||
|
||||
This is the classic project-scheduling / PERT makespan problem (NP-hard in
|
||||
general with resource constraints, but here resources are unlimited so it
|
||||
reduces to critical-path length -- yet we still solve it by search and verify
|
||||
against brute force to catch implementation bugs).
