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...

nowadays organization especially r&d; centers are dealing with project portfolio selection decisions under uncertainty. moreover in the most of the past research, project portfolio selection and scheduling are often considered to be independent problem. this leads to insufficient result in real world. so in this research simultaneous project portfolio selection and scheduling problem is modelin...

Abstract: This paper presents an exact model and a genetic algorithm for the multi-mode resource constrained project scheduling problem with generalized precedence relations in which the duration of an activity is determined by the mode selection and the duration reduction (crashing) applied within the selected mode. All resources considered are renewable. The objective is to determine a mode, ...

the research on project scheduling has widely expanded over the last few decades. the vast majority of these research efforts focus on exact and suboptimal procedures for constructing a workable schedule, assuming complete information and a static deterministic problem environment. project activities are scheduled subject to both technological precedence constraints and resource constraints, mo...
