Function cp::EndOfNext(sequentialResource, scheduledActivity, lastValue, absentValue)

cp::EndOfNext

The function cp::EndOfNext refers to the end of the next activity in a sequence of activities. For a resource \(r\), an activity \(a\), timeslots \(l\) and \(d\), the function cp::EndOfNext(r,a,l,d) returns

  • \(d\) if \(a\) is absent,

  • \(l\) if \(a\) is present and scheduled as the last activity on \(r\), and

  • \(n\texttt{.end}\) if \(a\) is present and not scheduled as the last activity on \(r\), and \(n\) is the next activity of \(a\) scheduled on \(r\).
