Scheduling Software Projects to Minimize the Development Time and Cost with a Given Staff
نویسنده
چکیده
A probabilistic scheduling model for software projects is presented. The model explicitly takes a scheduling strategy as input. When the scheduling strategy is fixed, the model outputs a probability distribution for the project completion time or cost. By applying stochastic optimization techniques, schedules for software projects can be computed which minimize the development time or cost with a given staff.

Optimal Two Stages Specially Structured Flow Shop Scheduling: Minimize the Rental Cost with Independent Setup Time
One of the earliest results in flow shop scheduling theory is an algorithm given by Johnson’s [1] for scheduling jobs on two or three machines to minimize the total elapsed time whenever the processing times of jobs are random. The present paper is an attempt to develop a heuristic algorithm for two stages specially structured flow shop scheduling in which the processing times of the jobs a...
