Project Portfolio Selection with the Maximization of Net Present Value
Projects scheduling by the project portfolio selection, something that has its own complexity and its flexibility, can create different composition of the project portfolio. An integer programming model is formulated for the project portfolio selection and scheduling.Two heuristic algorithms, genetic algorithm (GA) and simulated annealing (SA), are presented to solve the problem. Results of cal...

متن کاملProject scheduling optimization for contractor’s Net present value maximization using meta-heuristic algorithms: A case study
Today's competitive conditions have caused the projects to be carried out in the least possible time with limited resources. Therefore, managing and scheduling a project is a necessity for the project. The timing of a project is to specify a sequence of times for a series of related activities. According to their priority and their latency, so that between the time the project is completed and ...
متن کاملNet Present Value with Uncertainty
Projects may be evaluated and compared according to the Net Present Value (NPV) of their cash flow. The NPV is the discounted expected revenues minus the costs over the lifetime of the project. Traditional NPV calculations do not take into account the uncertainty in the variables that influence the revenues and costs. We present a simulation approach to incorporate uncertainty in the NPV calcul...
متن کاملNet Present Value Simulating with a Spreadsheet
Decision making has always been a difficult process, based on various combinations if objectivity (when scientific tools were used) and subjectivity (considering that decisions are finally made by people, with their strengths and weaknesses). The IT revolution has also reached the areas of management and decision making, helping managers make better and more informed decisions by providing them...
