Agent oriented software engineering (AOSE) is an emerging field in computer science  and  proposes some systematic ideas for multi agent systems analysis, implementation and maintenance. Despite the various methodologies introduced in the agent-oriented software engineering, the main challenges are defects in different aspects of methodologies. According to the defects resulted from weaknesses ...

This paper investigates the problem of selecting and scheduling a set of projects among available projects. Each project consists of several tasks and to perform each one some resource is required. The objective is to maximize total benefit. The paper constructs a mathematical formulation in form of mixed integer linear programming model. Three effective metaheuristics in form of the imperialis...

‎In this paper allocating a fixed resource for producing ‎finite projects in order to obtaining a desired level of‎ ‎efficiency will be discussed‎. ‎Note that it is assumed that a ‎vector of limited sources is at hand‎. ‎This vector of resources can‎ ‎be contained human resource‎, ‎budget‎, ‎equipment‎, ‎and facilities‎. ‎In ‎any firm there exist different suggestions from subunits for ‎running...

The evaluation and selection of an Ada compilation system for a project is a complex and costly process. Failure to thoroughly evaluate an Ada compilation system for a particular user application will increase project risk and may result in cost and schedule overruns. The purpose of this handbook is to convince the reader of the difficulty and importance of evaluating an Ada compilation system ...
