       | " Given a set of orders, find a schedule that maximize the

       | 
       | Shouldn't the target be to minimize the makespan?

       | This kind of project reminded me of the homework we had to do in
       | uni for the "formal methods for real-time systems" course. We had
       | to use UPPAAL [1] to verify the stability of a transportation
       | belt with some machines doing things with some delays and other
       | stuff. As far as I remember UPPAAL provides also some python
       | libraries, that can be used to make automated tests. It would be
       | interesting to see how Hay Day scenarios could be implemented in
       | UPPAAL and test different approaches. Anyway, very nice project,
       | the article is really well written as well.
