In this study, we consider the stochastic capacitated lot sizing problem with controllable processing times where processing times can be reduced in return for extra compression cost. We assume that the compression cost function is a convex function as it may reflect increasing marginal costs of larger reductions and may be more appropriate when the resource life, energy consumption or carbon e...

The successful construction of infrastructure is dependent on many aspects, including at least time, cost, and control. With good control, deviations during the execution work are expected to be minimized. In case "MAS BIMACIKA" Service Office Building Construction project, acceleration becomes an issue. Acceleration needs more resources than normal conditions, addition required achieve product...

In this paper, a due date assignment scheduling problem with precedence constraints and controllable processing times in uncertain environment is investigated, in which the basic processing time of each job is assumed to be the symmetric trapezoidal fuzzy number, and the linear resource consumption function is used.The objective is to minimize the crisp possibilistic mean (or expected) value of...

This paper seeks to add contributions of the innovation and industrial Economics to more used techniques of crashing, in the Projects Management domain. First, it presents the brute force method, improved for the use of the MSProject. Second, it develops a linear program approaches for determining the earliest crash completion time and for determining a least costly crash schedule, for the same...
