Real Options for Project Schedules (ROPS)
نویسنده
چکیده
Real Options for Project Schedules (ROPS) has three recursive sampling/optimization shells. An outer Adaptive Simulated Annealing (ASA) optimization shell optimizes parameters of strategic Plans containing multiple Projects containing ordered Tasks. A middle shell samples probability distributions of durations of Tasks. An inner shell samples probability distributions of costs of Tasks. PATHTREE is used to develop options on schedules. Algorithms used for Trading in Risk Dimensions (TRD) are applied to develop a relative risk analysis among projects.

Developing Robust Project Scheduling Methods for Uncertain Parameters
A common problem arising in project management is the fact that the baseline schedule is often disrupted during the project execution because of uncertain parameters. As a result, project managers are often unable to meet the deadline time of the milestones. Robust project scheduling is an effective approach in case of uncertainty. Upon adopting this approach, schedules are protected against po...

متن کاملDevelopment and validation of a computer program to design and calculate ROPS.
In Spain, there are more than 250,000 tractors built before 1980, when it became mandatory for all new tractors to be equipped with a rollover protective structure (ROPS). A similar situation is found in the European Union, but the situation is worse in the U.S. and in developing countries. Directive 2003/37/EEC establishes that tractors over 800 kg weight can be homologated by using the OECD s...
متن کاملEvaluating Incremental/Iterative Software Projects by Valuing Investment/Implementation Risks
The optimisation process of scheduling an incremental/iterative software project can be approached as a multi criteria decision problem, formulated by a linear programming model, aimed to propose alternative project schedules and examine cost trade-offs. In this paper, we apply the prominent economic theory of Real Options to analyse project investment risks and discover the economic value asso...
