In Least Cost Branch and Bound, the algorithm selects the node with the minimum cost from the available nodes to explore next. This prioritizes paths that appear most promising based on the current cost evaluation.
Conditions: Applicable when using the Least Cost strategy for Branch and Bound.; A cost function is defined for the problem.

Least Cost Branch and Bound avoids generating the entire search tree by prioritizing nodes with the lowest cost, allowing it to reach a solution faster than FIFO or LIFO methods. It focuses exploration on the most promising paths based on the cost heuristic.
Conditions: Assumes that the cost function provides a good heuristic for finding the optimal solution quickly.; Used for comparing different node exploration strategies in search trees.

FIFO expands the first generated node (using a queue), LIFO expands the last generated node (using a stack), while Least Cost expands the node with the minimum cost (using a priority queue or similar structure based on cost).
Conditions: Used for comparing different node exploration strategies in search trees.; Applies to branch-and-bound search methods.

The tree is expanded breadth-first. After the root's children are created, the instructor treats that whole level as completed and then expands nodes from left to right across the current frontier.
Conditions: The tree is explored level by level.; At each node, only jobs not already used on the path from the root are appended.; The clip shows structural expansion only, not pruning by bounds.

A path from the root records the ordered partial sequence of chosen jobs. Following a route in the drawn tree corresponds to selecting the jobs along that route in order; for example, the route using J1 then J4 means doing job 1 and job 4 and not taking jobs 2 and 3 along that partial path.
Conditions: The tree is the job-sequencing state-space tree drawn on the board.; Each edge label indicates appending one job to the current partial sequence.
