Discrete Math

Let \(\{A, \ldots, H\}\) be a set of tasks that we must complete. The following Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) describes which tasks must be done before others, where there is an arrow from \(S\) to \(T\) if and only if \(S\) must be done before \(T\).

The diagram is a directed graph with the following edges: 

- \(A \rightarrow D\) 
- \(B \rightarrow E\) 
- \(B \rightarrow F\) 
- \(B \rightarrow G\) 
- \(C \rightarrow F\) 
- \(D \rightarrow E\) 
- \(F \rightarrow H\)

(a) Write the longest chain.

(b) Write the longest antichain.

(c) If we allow parallel scheduling, and each task takes 1 minute to complete, what is the minimum amount of time needed to complete all tasks?
