In a nutshell, the problem is when to schedule people to work when the amount of coverage needed fluctuates throughout the day and not everybody performs at the same rate or supports the same products. Currently, I plan on using a DECStation 3100 with an ultrix os. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what I should use to develop this model or set of models? The list below lists some things I was thinking of using. 1. C 2. C, Nexpert 3. Nexpert 4. Lisp 5. ? Please reply via mail since I do not get into usenet that often. Thanks for any and all replies and suggestions. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Scott Johnson Digital Equipment Corporation Colorado Springs, Co Brought to you by Super Global Mega Corp .com
