Multi-agent technology for scheduling and control projects in multi-project environments. An Auction based approach
Most existing methods for scheduling projects are based on centralized or hierarchical decision making using global models. So far, these methods have not produced the desired results, especially in highly dynamic multi-projects environments. In this study, we investigate a new method based on multi-agent systems and a combinatorial auction mechanism to allocate resources for the projects tasks...
متن کاملMulti Machine Scheduling: An Agent-Based Approach
Scheduling of multiple parallel machines in the face of sequence dependent setups and downstream considerations is a hard problem. No single efficient algorithm is guaranteed to produce optimal results. We describe a solution for an instance of this problem, in the domain of paper manufacturing. The problem has additional job machine restrictions and fixed costs of assigning jobs to machines. W...
متن کاملAn Auction-based Approach for Decentralized Multi-Project Scheduling: (Doctoral Consortium)
Many scheduling problems in industry practice are considered as Decentralized Resource-Constrained Multi-Project Scheduling Problem (DRCMPSP). Given its characteristics, the problem must be solved in a decentralized manner while respecting information privacy of projects. However, existing approaches fail in satisfying these requirements, and encounter difficulties in dealing with large cases. ...
متن کاملProject Scheduling Based on Multi-Agent Systems
One of the most important and challenging issues in construction project management is to schedule activities to meet the construction project requirements under resource constraints. In this paper, we will concentrate on the development of a workflow scheduling system that can be applied in construction supply chains based on the interactions of entities/partners. Execution of workflows that h...
متن کاملManaging Complex Projects in Multi- Project Environments
Complexity has been identified in both literature and practice as a critical project dimension that needs to be better managed to improve project delivery. Many authors have argued that increasing complexity or the underestimation of complexity accounts for some of the delays and cost overruns experienced on projects. Within the construction industry, the increasing demand for contractors to pl...
