Task Planner

A task planning system that allows users to organize and manage tasks in both sequential and tree-based structures. This system provides flexible ways to organize tasks, set priorities, and manage dependencies between tasks.

Project Structure

The project is organized as follows:

            └── eped/

                    ├── TaskIF.java               # Task interface
                    ├── TaskPlannerIF.java        # Task planner interface
                    ├── TaskPlannerSequence.java  # Sequential task planner implementation
                    └── TaskPlannerTree.java      # Tree-based task planner implementation

Features

• Multiple Task Organization Methods

  • Sequential task planning for linear task management
  • Tree-based task planning for hierarchical task organization
  • Support for task dependencies and relationships

• Task Management

  • Priority levels for task importance
  • Task status tracking
  • Task metadata management

• Architecture

  • Interface-based design for extensibility
  • Clean separation of concerns
  • Modular and maintainable code structure

Getting Started

Prerequisites

• Java Development Kit (JDK) 8 or higher
• A Java IDE (recommended) or text editor
• Basic understanding of Java programming
• Bash shell (for running test scripts)

Building and Running

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone <repository-url>

2. Navigate to the project directory:

   cd task-planner

3. Compile the Java files:

   javac src/es/uned/lsi/eped/pract2024_2025/*.java

4. Run the application:

   java -cp src es.uned.lsi.eped.pract2024_2025.Main

Testing

The project includes a test script Compile_Run_Test_2025_EST_V.01.sh that automates the compilation, execution, and testing of the application. To run the tests:

1. Make the script executable:

   chmod +x Compile_Run_Test_2025_EST_V.01.sh

2. Execute the test script:

   ./Compile_Run_Test_2025_EST_V.01.sh

The script will:

• Compile all Java source files
• Run the application with test cases
• Verify the output against expected results
• Report any errors or issues found

Task Planner Implementations

The system provides two different implementations for task planning:

1. Sequential Task Planner (TaskPlannerSequence)

   • Organizes tasks in a linear sequence
   • Suitable for simple, step-by-step task management
   • Tasks are processed in order of addition

2. Tree-based Task Planner (TaskPlannerTree)

   • Organizes tasks in a hierarchical structure
   • Supports parent-child relationships between tasks
   • Ideal for complex projects with multiple subtasks

Input/Output Format

The program can be executed using the following command:

java -jar eped2025.jar <implementation> <input> <output>

Parameters:

• <implementation>: Choose between SEQUENCE or TREE
• <input>: Path to the input file containing task operations
• <output>: Path where the results will be saved

Input File Format

The input file should contain task operations in a specific format. Each line represents an operation to be performed on the task planner.

Output File Format

The output file will contain the results of the operations performed, including task status, relationships, and any error messages.
