Language interpreter booking buffers calculator

Calculate fixed-order itinerary and capacity/window flags and infeasible stops with your own figures.

Your numbers

Use the units shown. Results update as you change valid inputs.

Use fixed-order itinerary and capacity/window flags and infeasible stops to compare changes to your inputs. The method and limits below explain the scope.

Try the starting example

Stops [opening minute,closing minute,service minutes,load change units]; enter JSON
[[0,60,30,0],[40,100,30,0]]
Travel matrix (minutes); depot then stop order; enter JSON
[[0,5,8],[5,0,6],[8,6,0]]
Vehicle load capacity (same load units)

Calculation method

Calculation method

Fixed-order itinerary and capacity/window flags (JSON)

From depot in listed stop order: start=max(open,last end+matrix travel); end=start+service; add load change; check end<=close and 0<=load<=capacity.

Infeasible stops (count)

Count stop rows failing window or load check.

Symbols and units
a
Stops [opening minute,closing minute,service minutes,load change units]; enter JSON
b
Travel matrix (minutes); depot then stop order; enter JSON
c
Vehicle load capacity (same load units)
d
Depot departure minute

Use the units shown. A list keeps the order in which you enter its values. The symbol ^ means “raised to the power of”.

Assumptions & limits

Assumptions & limits

  • Fixed interpreter appointment itinerary; service duration includes the user-required post-session break; loads can be zero. Supported limits: All numeric inputs and computed intermediates must remain finite. Supported numeric input magnitude is zero or 1e-12 through 1e12 in absolute value; reject values outside this bounded range. All lists/JSON record tables are limited to 100 records unless a stricter bound is stated; reject malformed record arity and wrong member types. 1..20 stops; (n+1) square nonnegative travel matrix, diagonal zero; opening<=closing; service>=0. Initial load zero; positive change pickups, negative deliveries require earlier listed loading stops.
