Add Building

Details

• • Name

    • • Name of the building

  • Abbreviation

    • • Building abbreviation

  • External ID

    • • External ID of the building (optional)

  • Coordinates

    • • X and Y coordinates of the building (used in calculating distances between buildings)

        • • Distance between two buildings is computed as Euclidean distance between coordinates × 10 meters (e.g., distance between coordinates [0,0] and [3,4] is 50 meters)

          • Coordinates cannot be negative

          • A building with no coordinates is assumed to be too far from any other building (for instructor and student back-to-back constraints)

Note: If you do not have coordinate system established, entering the same coordinates (e.g., [0,0]) for all buildings will ensure that there will be no "too far" instructor and student back-to-back constraint violations in the problem.

Operations

• • Save (ALT+S)

    • • Save a new building and go back to the Buildings screen

  • Back (ALT+B)

    • • Go back to the Buildings screen without saving anything
