Reschedule k Meetings to Find Maximum Break Time
For example, there are n = 4 presenters scheduled for the course of the event which begins at time 0 and ends at time t = 15. The meetings start at times start = [4, 6, 7, 10] and end at times finish = [5, 7, 8, 11]. You can rearrange up to k = 2 meetings. In this case, we have 4 periods without speakers scheduled: [0-3], [5], [8-9], [11-14]. The meeting ends after hour 14. If the first meeting is shifted to an hour later, a break is created from 0 to 5 (5 hours). If the last speech is moved up to 8, it will end at 9, leaving a break from 9 to 15. There is no point in moving the middle two speeches in this case. The longest break that can be achieved is 15 - 9 = 6 hours by moving the last speech two hours earlier.
