A manufacturing cell with Kanban control produces 16 different types of cylindrical metal rods that are used in several assembly cells spread across a 1,000,000 sq. ft. complex consisting of four buildings.  One particular rod (A3416) is used by three different assembly cells for a consistent total demand rate of 60 rods per hour.  The rods are moved in containers that hold 5 rods.  It typically takes 5 hours to replenish a container of rods but that time varies by up to 20%. How many kanbans should be used for the production of rod (A3416)? 

TRUE or FALSE: The main requirement of a good heuristic is that it should converge to a solution with an acceptable amount of computational effort.

TRUE or FALSE: Binary sorting will always converge to the same solution regardless of the starting order of rows and columns.
