Question 3.54

24.

  1. The order-requirement diagram accompanying Exercise 23 shows a directed edge from T4 to T7. Explain why this edge can be omitted from the order-requirement digraph because it is “redundant.”
  2. In Exercise 23, if the direction of the edge from T6 to T7 were reversed, would this still be a “legal” order-requirement digraph? (Explain your answer.)
