Book excerpt: This book discussed a new approach for solving assignment problems alongside the existing classical Hungarian method and the revised ones assignment method. The new approach is called mean assignment method (MAM). It consist of three steps and uses the concept of mean and mean deviation. The mean gives the mid-point for each row. The farther the costs ( are from the mean, the higher their suitability for assignment. Furthermore, a comparative analysis was carried out to compare existing classical Hungarian method and the revised ones assignment method with the newly introduced method (mean assignment method) in terms of computation time and also to determine which method arrives at optimal solution quicker. Findings showed that the classical Hungarian method and the mean assignment method produced the optimum (minimum total cost) assignment. In addition, the mean assignment method saves computation time with just three steps of algorithm while the other two methods (Hungarian method and revised ones assignment method) take more computation time.
