The assignment problem represents a special case of linear programming problem used for allocating resources (mostly workforce) in an optimal way; it is a highly useful tool for operation and project managers for optimizing costs. The lpSolve R package allows us to solve LP assignment problems with just very few lines of code.
The assignment problem is one of the fundamental combinatorial optimization problems in the branch of optimization or operations research in mathematics. In an assignment problem , we must find a maximum matching that has the minimum weight in a weighted bipartite graph .
5.1 INTRODUCTION. The assignment problem is one of the special type of transportation problem for which more efficient (less-time consuming) solution method has been devised by KUHN (1956) and FLOOD (1956). The justification of the steps leading to the solution is based on theorems proved by Hungarian mathematicians KONEIG (1950) and EGERVARY ...

The Hungarian method is a combinatorial optimization algorithm which was developed and published by Harold Kuhn in 1955. This method was originally invented for the best assignment of a set of persons to a set of jobs. It is a special case of the transportation problem. The algorithm finds an optimal assignment for a given "n x n" cost matrix.
However, solving this task for increasing number of jobs and/or resources calls for computational techniques. This article aims at solving an Assignment Problem using the Gurobi package of Python.
Tables 2, 3, 4, and 5 present the steps required to determine the appropriate job assignment to the machine. Step 1 By taking the minimum element and subtracting it from all the other elements in each row, the new table will be: Table 2 represents the matrix after completing the 1st step. Table 1 Initial table of a.
The assignment problem is a fundamental combinatorial optimization problem. In its most general form, the problem is as follows: The problem instance has a number of agents and a number of tasks. Any agent can be assigned to perform any task, incurring some cost that may vary depending on the agent-task assignment.
The last phase, interpretation, encompasses making a decision and developing implementation plans. The paragraphs below explain the seven elements of the operations research problem solving process in greater detail. The activities that take place in each element are illustrated through some of the tools or methods commonly used.

Repeating step 3 on the reduced matrix, we get the following assignments. Table. The above solution suggests that the salesman should go from city 1 to city 4, city 4 to city 2, and then city 2 to 1 (original starting point). The above solution is not a solution to the travelling salesman problem as he visits city 1 twice.
Solving Maximisation in an Assignment Problem. The above approach provides a step-by-step process to maximize an assignment problem. Here are the steps in summary: Convert the assignment problem into a matrix. Reduce the matrix by subtracting the minimum value in each row and column. Cover all zeros in the matrix with the minimum number of lines.
