Maximizing the Expected Net Present Value of a Project with Phase-Type Distributed Activity Durations: An Efficient Globally Optimal Solution Procedure

A Heuristic Algorithm for Project Scheduling Problem to Maximizing the Net Present Value

This paper deals with resource unconstrained project scheduling problems with the objective of maximizing the net present value (NPV) of project cash flows. Here we present a heuristic algorithm named as differential procedure (Dif_AOA).&#10In order to evaluate the efficiency of this algorithm, networks with node numbers between 10-1000 and network complexity coefficients between 1.3-6.6 have ...

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...
