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 ...

in this paper we consider the non-preemptive variant of a multi-mode resource constrained project scheduling problem (mrcpsp) with mode identity, in which a set of project activities is partitioned into disjoint subsets while all activities forming one subset have to be processed in the same mode. we present a depth-first branch and bound algorithm for the resource constrained project schedulin...

How is it possible to derive the superior IT investment portfolio? One main identified research objective in IT portfolio management (ITPM) is to manage a set of IT assets, similar to manage a financial portfolio to attain the superior return and risk. Among various IT assets, the investment in IT project is particularly critical. In finance, the concept of portfolio selectivity generally refer...

Investors use different approaches to select optimal portfolio. so, Optimal investment choices according to return can be interpreted in different models. The traditional approach to allocate portfolio selection called a mean - variance explains. Another approach is Markov chain. Markov chain is a random process without memory. This means that the conditional probability distribution of the nex...

One of the greatest challenges facing life sciences companies is the ability to discover and develop new products, which will sustain their long-term economic growth. The problem is difficult because of intense competition, the availability of a large number of new product ideas and limited human and capital resources. The planning problem is exacerbated by the presence of significant uncertain...

in the science of operation research and decision theory, selection is the most important process. selection is a process that studies multiple qualitative and quantitative criteria, related to the science of management, which are mostly incompatible with each other. the multi criteria selection of a renewable energy portfolio is one of the main issues considered in multi criteria literature. i...

Risks are natural and inherent characteristics of major projects. Risks are usually considered independently in analysis of risk responses. However, most risks are dependent on each other and dependent risks are rare in the real world. This paper proposes a model for proper risk response selection from the responses portfolio with the purpose of optimization of defined criteria for projects. Th...
