Scheduling is the process of devising or designing a procedure for a particular objective, specifying the sequence or time for each item in the procedure. Qpical scheduling problems are railway time-tabling, project scheduling, production scheduling, and scheduling computer systems as in flexible manufacturing systems and multiprocessor scheduling. Further, there are a number of related problem...

Typical processes controlled by hard real-time computer systems undergo several, mutually exclusive modes of operation. By deterministically switching among a number of static schedules, a pre run-time scheduled system is able to adapt to changing environmental situations. This paper presents concepts for speci cation of mode changes, construction of static schedules for modes and transitions, ...

Abstract This work aims to study a project scheduling method based Critical Chain Method (CCM), which is a burgeoning project scheduling technology based on the Theory of Constraints (TOC). We formulate the model of the critical chain project scheduling problem, in which a simplified scheme of critical chain project scheduling is used to generate the critical chain project plan. And then, a gen...
