Comparative Analysis on approximation algorithms for the Resource Constrained Project Scheduling Problem
نویسندگان
چکیده
In Resource Constrained Project Scheduling Problem (RCPSP) exact algorithms can only solve small instances, and several approximation algorithms have been proposed that can solve large instances with a quasi-optimal solution. So far there is no comparative analysis of several algorithms running on the same machine, with equal time limit and large instances; this is our main goal. A new performance indicator is proposed that is not affected by the presence of simple problems in the instance set. The instance set was built by assembling the main sets in the literature and also JobShop and FlowShop instances transformed to RCPSP. In this work 30 meta-heuristics were implemented, obtaining a total of 159.364.665 solutions evaluated of RCPSP.

Resource constrained project scheduling problem (RCPSP) is mainly investigated with the objective of either minimizing project makespan or maximizing project net present value. However, when material planning plays a key role in a project, the existing models cannot help determining material ordering plans to minimize material costs. In this paper, the RCPSP incorporated with the material order...

The aim of a multi-mode resource-constrained project scheduling problem (MRCPSP) is to assign resource(s) with the restricted capacity to an execution mode of activities by considering relationship constraints, to achieve pre-determined objective(s). These goals vary with managers or decision makers of any organization who should determine suitable objective(s) considering organization strategi...

This paper proposes a new mixed-integer model for the multi-skill resource-constrained project scheduling problem (MSRCPSP). The interactions between workers are represented as undirected networks. Therefore, for each required skill, an undirected network is formed which shows the relations of human resources. In this paper, community detection in networks is used to find the most compatible wo...
متن کاملA Preemptive multimode resource constrained project scheduling model with cash flows
Resource constrained project scheduling problem is one of the most important issues in project planning and management. The objective function of this problem is to minimize the completion time of a project. When there is budget constraint or high risk for investment, using the criteria such as cash flows is so important. The development of computer systems and processors makes it possible to t...
