The problem of allocating scarce resources over time to perform a
given set of activities - that is, project scheduling - appears in
the vast spectrum of real-world situations. Over the last forty
years project scheduling problems have been carefully studied,
resulting in a considerable body of knowledge. Recently, however,
the power and ubiquity of the computer has had a pronounced effect
on research in project scheduling and project scheduling models. As
a result, considerable progress has been made in all directions of
modeling and finding solutions to these problems. This volume is a
state-of-the-art treatment of Project Scheduling in general and of
recent developments in particular. Part I deals with classical
models. By classical model' we mean the deterministic problems
involving discrete resources only and the evaluation of schedules
on the basis of a single criterion. This term covers a wide variety
of problems, including (discrete) resource-duration interaction,
i.e. multi-mode models. Part 2 deals with heuristic algorithms for
these models. It is complemented by chapters treating such
important problems as benchmark instances, interval capacity
consistency tests, and the evolution of software quality for
(classical) project scheduling problems. In Part 3 the most
important new or non-classical' models are considered. These
include probabilistic and fuzzy models, and continuous resources as
well as multi-criteria formulations and knowledge-based systems.
Part 4 contains some important extensions and/or applications of
the project scheduling problems considered in the previous
chapters.
