Project scheduling optimization for contractor’s Net present value maximization using meta-heuristic algorithms: A case study

Today's competitive conditions have caused the projects to be carried out in the least possible time with limited resources. Therefore, managing and scheduling a project is a necessity for the project. The timing of a project is to specify a sequence of times for a series of related activities.

A Simple and Flexible Timing Constraint Logic

Formats for describing timing behaviors range from fixed menus of standard patterns, to fully open-ended behavioral definitions; of which some may be supported by formal semantic underpinnings, while others are better characterized as primarily informal notations. Timing descriptions that allow flexible extension within a fully formalized framework constitute a particularly interesting area in ...

A Flexible XML Query Language for NON Dummies

This paper introduces and motivates our proposal of an XPath extension which allows the definition of queries with flexible constraints on both content and structure. The proposed language allow expert users to benefit of the recall improvements of flexible languages while using their collection knowledge to improve the retrieval precision.
