4- The following table lists the weekly quantities and routings of ten parts that are being considered for cellular manufacturing in a machine shop. Parts are identified by letters and machines are identified numerically. For the data given, (a) develop the part-machine incidence matrix, and (b) apply the rank order clustering technique to the part-machine incidence matrix to identify logical part families and machine groups.
