Abstract
Systems and methods determine a layer of a part to be manufactured within a build module a 3D printing system. Within the layer, lasing tasks to be performed for manufacturing the layer of the part. Constraints are determined that represent one or more limitations associated with at least one of an order or a timing in which the lasing tasks are performed. Based at least in part on the constraints a directed acyclic graph (DAG) is generated that is associated with the at least one of the order or the timing in which the lasing tasks are performed.
