Week 98 — Workflow execution
Production AI platform engineering · Implement
Hard
Phase 9 — Production AI platform engineering
Overview
DAG scheduler, idempotency
Mode this week: implement. Match the work to that mode (operating model): implement ships running code; read/diagram ships a doc; deploy/benchmark ships a measured run. Personal dates, checkboxes, and the RPG layer stay in a learner journal.
Core deliverable
Workflow engine
Optional depth
Add a production-shaped benchmark, cost or safety analysis, and an architecture trade-off note.
Week loop (from the cookiecutter journal)
- Mon — Theory: DAG scheduler, idempotency
- Tue — Build: start the core deliverable above
- Wed — Systems / papers: one paper or system note (see below if this week has assigned reading)
- Thu — Eval / interview: write the four evidence items
- Fri — Algorithmic Forge: Tenant-tree query lab; Week 102 platform boss (2-3 hr; Supporting / Boss)
Forge theme: Euler indexing, subtree aggregation, DSU on Tree, HLD survey
Leetcode Darbar (parallel)
This week's band (82-102): Heaps, priority queues, graphs, trees, range queries. Production connection: Inference schedulers, quotas, queues, tenant fairness.
Standard: one aligned problem. Auror: the five-slot queue on the Darbar page. Tracker stays in the learner journal.
Topics: graphs · heap · queue · range query · trees
- All Paths From Source To Target · medium · graphs
- The K Weakest Rows In A Matrix · easy · heap
- Implement Stack Using Queues · easy · queue
- Queue Reconstruction By Height · medium · range query
- Binary Tree Paths · easy · trees
Evidence contract
Every core week records all four (cookiecutter journal/weeks/week_098.md):
- Code / implementation (or the design artifact on a writing week)
- Benchmark / result
- Design doc / technical explanation
- Retrospective / learning note (Sailboat: destination, wind, anchor, rocks, heading)
