1. Given the incidence matrix shown below: a. Apply the ranking order clustering algorithm in order to establish the appropriate part families and machine cells (20 points). 0 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 0 1 0 1 0 1 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 0 1 1 1 0 b. Based on your clustering outcome above, how many cells will you use and what machines/processes and parts will be utilized in each cell? Are there any inefficiencies in your design? If so, describe them and how you might make improvements (10 points).
