Apr 21, 2016 at 16:28 comment added Snoop Maybe come up with some sort of a system where you load all the work that needs to be done into a queue. Then, do the work at scheduled intervals until the queue is exhausted.
Apr 21, 2016 at 15:00 comment added Gareth Lloyd Yes, more trips to the exchange is a worse outcome.
Apr 21, 2016 at 14:53 comment added Dan Pichelman Is there a cost (money or time) to go to the exchange?
Apr 21, 2016 at 13:52 comment added radarbob Since workers are obviously trusted with keys and may keep keys over night and for as long as necessary - as long as an exchange is not required - why not make a set of keys for each worker that they keep permanently? Alternatively, create a set of keys for each worker for all places they go for a given time period, say, a week. Keys are duplicated as needed to make a week-set for every worker. All workers exchange keys once a week.

Apr 21, 2016 at 12:43 comment added Gareth Lloyd Yes, workers can carry any number of keys. Regarding "average" I think I expressed myself poorly. I was thinking more about fairness, that no worker should have to complete a disproportionate number of trips, so a low variance. (edited question to match)
Apr 21, 2016 at 12:14 comment added Doc Brown Average number of trips to E per worker = "total number of trips" / m. So if m is constant, your two goals are the same goal. More interesting: I guess each worker can carry more than one key at the same time?
