Instance 6 (BR-SN-00)

Brazil Instance 6

Brazil Instance 6 is a real problem, collected in the year 2000, at the public school Dom Silvério, located in Mariana, Minas Gerais, Brasil. This instance corresponds to the evening shift at this school. In the work of M.J.F. Souza et al, it corresponds to data set DS00N. It was provided in XHSTT by Haroldo Santos.


This instance was corrected on April 1, 2015, by making the PreferTimesConstraint a hard constraint. Due to this the solution group Demirovic, Musliu - LNS MaxSAT submitted on 20 February 2015 by Emir Demirovic and Nysret Musliu with cost 34 turned infeasible, and has been removed from the list of best solutions.
Lowerbounds remain correct after change.
