A recurring problem in project management involves the allocation of scarce resources to the individual jobs comprising the project. In many situations such as audit-staff scheduling, timetabling, and course scheduling, the resources correspond to individuals (skilled labour). This naturally leads to an assignment-type project scheduling problem, i.e. a project has to be performed by assigning ...

Recently, Opportunistic Networks (OppNets) are considered to be one of the most attractive developments Mobile Ad Hoc that have arisen thanks development intelligent devices. OppNets characterized by a rough and dynamic topology as well unpredictable contacts contact times. Data is forwarded stored in intermediate nodes until next opportunity occurs. Therefore, achieving high delivery ratio cha...

In this paper we present a unified (probabilistic/possibilistic) model for resource-constrained project scheduling problem (RCPSP) with uncertain activity durations and a concept of a heuristic approach connected to the theoretical model. It is shown that the uncertainty management can be built into any heuristic algorithm developed to solve RCPSP with deterministic activity durations. The esse...
